The correct option is
B
Ctenoplana
Tentacles are the organs that are used to catch prey. These are present at the opening of the gastrovascular cavity.
Colloblasts are a cell type found in ctenophores.
They are widespread in the tentacles of these animals and are used to capture prey.
These are found in all ctenophores except those of the order
Beroida,
as they lack tentacles.
So, the correct answer is option B.
