Types of segmentation:

On the basis of presence or absence of segmentation, kingdom animalia is differentatied into two categories: 1. Segmented 2. Unsegemented On the basis of interconnection of organisms, one more type of category is found for animal that shows false segments i.e. they do have segments present but are not interconnected to each other and work independently. Such organisms are called pseudocoelomates. For simplification, such organisms show their segments in few stages of their life only, even if their parts from posterior region are cut off, they can still be alive.
 * Platyhelminths are pseudocoelomates*

Basically, those organisms whose segements(i.e.repetitive linear series of parts/units/chambers) are present throughout their lifecycle and are dependent of each other. For simplification, if we cut off a part from a true segmented organism then it will die.

Such organisms whose body isn't divided into segments are called asegmented.
