A coelom is a fluid-filled body cavity within coelomate animals, lined with mesodermal tissue that protects and houses vital organs. It plays a crucial role in providing flexibility, organ cushioning, and facilitating the diffusion of substances. The presence of a coelom categorizes animals into distinct groups: eucoelomates, acoelomates, and pseudocoelomates.
