Nematodes acquire nutrients through specialised feeding structure known as pincer.

Question

True or False

Answer 1

False. Nematodes do not have a specialized feeding structure known as a "pincer." Instead, they typically have a mouth that may be equipped with various structures depending on their feeding habits. Some nematodes are saprophytic, feeding on decaying organic matter, while others are predators or parasites. Their feeding mechanisms can include a simple pharynx, but they do not possess pincers.
