Solution

The correct option is B Excretion
A flame cell is a specialized excretory cell found in flatworms. These cells function like a kidney and remove waste materials. Bundles of flame cells are called protonephridia. The function of these cells is to regulate the osmotic pressure of the worm and maintain its ionic balance.
So the correct answer is 'excretion'.
