The results were compared to similar pedometer studies in Switzerland, Australia and Japan.The data collected showed that Americans, on average, took 5,117 steps a day, far short of the averages in western Australia (9,695 steps), Switzerland (9,650 steps) and Japan (7,168 steps).Written 17 Nov, 2014 â¢ View Upvotes. study tracked the steps of 1,136 adults around the United States who wore pedometers for two days in 2003.

pseudocoelomate. (soÍo'dÅsÄ`lÉmÄt') , any of a group of invertebrates with a three-layered body that has a fluid-filled body cavity (pseudocoelom) between the endoderm and the mesoderm (the innermost and middle tissue layers).
A pseudocoelomate or blastocoelomate is any invertebrate animal with a three-layered body and a pseudocoel. The coelom was apparently lost or reduced as a result of mutations in certain types of genes that affected early development. Thus, pseudocoelomates evolved from coelomates. Pseudocoelomate is no longer considered a valid taxonomic group, since it is not monophyletic.
