what are the differences in protonephridia,flame cells,solenocyte?
Answers
Hello
A flame cell is a specialized excretory cell found in the simplest freshwater invertebrates, including flatworms (except the turbellarian order Acoela), rotifers and nemerteans; these are the simplest animals to have a dedicated excretory system. ... Bundles of flame cells are called protonephridia
Thanks

In biology, solenocytes are flagellated cells associated with excretion, osmoregulation and ionoregulation in many non-chordates and in some chordates under the sub-phylum Cephalochordata of the sub-group Protochordata.
These are the cells which form subtypes of Protonephridium along with the other type i.e. Flame Cells. Flame cells can be distinguished from solenocytes as the former is usually ciliated whereas the latter is flagellated.
