Solution

The correct option is B Prawn
Green glands are excretory organs of some arthropods like crustaceans. For example, prawns, crayfishes, lobsters etc. They are also called antennal glands because these glands are located near the base of larger antennae. Each gland has three parts end sac, labyrinth and bladder. The labyrinth is the proper excretory gland. Hence antennal gland functions as the excretory organ in prawn.
So, the correct answer is 'Prawn'.
