Solution

The correct option is B Leucosolenia
The Asconoid type of canal system is the simplest type of canal system and is found in Lecuosolenia and other Homocoela. In this type of canal system, ostia are present on the surface of the body and connected to the spongocoel. It is lined by flagellated choanocyte cells. Spongocoel opens to the outside through osculum, which is located at the distal free end of the sponge body. So, water enters through ostia into the spongocoel and excrete out through the osculum. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
