Solution

The correct option is D Coelenteron and cnidoblast
Every coelenteron has coelenteron and cnidoblast. Hydra is a coelenterate as it follows the basic coelenterate radially symmetric body plan of two cell layers without a true body gut, having instead a gastrovascular cavity, with the mouth as a single opening. Hydra has nematocyst. Each nematocyst is contained inside a cnidoblast cell.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
