Vedclass · Answer

(A) Metamerism is a phenomenon in which the body is externally and internally divided into segments with a serial repetition of at least some organs.This type of segmentation is a hallmark characteristic of the phylum $Annelida$ (e.g.,earthworms).In phylum $Arthropoda$,metamerism is also present,although it is often modified by the fusion of segments (tagmatization).Therefore,$Annelida$ and $Arthropoda$ are the phyla that exhibit metamerism.

Column $X$ (Phylum)	Column $Y$ (Example)
$(1)$ Protozoa	$(P)$ Bath sponge
$(2)$ Coelenterata	$(Q)$ Liver fluke
$(3)$ Porifera	$(R)$ Jellyfish
$(4)$ Platyhelminthes	$(S)$ Opalina
