Solution

The correct option is A Earthworm
Hemoglobin is an iron-containing oxygen-carrying pigment found in the blood of animals. It imparts a red colour to the blood due to the iron present in it and transports oxygen to various tissues. The hemoglobin found in earthworms is found dissolved in the plasma and is hence called extracellular hemoglobin.
So, the correct answer is 'Earthworm'.
