Protostomes vs

The main differences between Series Proterostomia and Series Deuterostomia are: 1) Cleavage in Proterostomia is spiral and determinate, while in Deuterostomia it is radial and indeterminate. 2) The mouth in Proterostomia arises from the blastopore or its anterior margin, whereas in Deuterostomia the mouth is formed at some distance anterior to the blastopore and the blastopore forms the anus. 3) Coelom formation in Proterostomia is due to splitting of mesoderm (schizocoelous), while in Deuterostomia it is developed as an outpouching of archenteron (enterocoelous). 4) Mesoderm in Proterostomia is derived from cells on the anterior lip of blastopore, while in Deuterostomia it is derived from the wall of the developing gut (archenteron). 5) Series Proterostomia includes animals belonging to phyla Aschelminthes (Nematoda), Annelida, Mollusca, and Arthropoda, whereas Series Deuterostomia includes animals belonging to phyla Echinodermata, Hemichordata, and Chordata.

The significant developmental difference is that in Series Proterostomia, the mouth arises from the blastopore or its anterior margin, while in Series Deuterostomia, the mouth is formed at some distance anterior to the blastopore, and the blastopore forms the anus.

The origin of the coelom differs between Series Proterostomia and Series Deuterostomia in that in Proterostomia, the coelom is formed due to the splitting of mesoderm (schizocoelous), while in Deuterostomia, the coelom is developed as an outpouching of the archenteron (enterocoelous).
