Description

The family Convolutidae includes acoels with a ventral mouth opening and a body-wall musculature composed both dorsally and ventrally by circular, longitudinal, and longitudinal crossover muscle fibers. The ventral body wall also has a group of U-shaped fibers.[1] Most species are symbionts with algae.[1] The anterior end has a cluster of frontal glands, a pair of eyes and a statocyst. The body has pigmented lens. Intestine and excretory system is absent. It is hermaphrodite but protandry is common.

Notes

    gollark: The originally intended and very poorly-defined osmarkscalculator™ way to do this would just be to make `deriv` a higher-order function, to have currying, and to probably have some kind of weird way in which values which can be substituted into are implicitly functions.
    gollark: It can differentiate things.
    gollark: Why not?
    gollark: You cared en ough to say that you cared 0 about it.
    gollark: I'm insulted by you leaving out *my* CAS.
