- Euglena is a genus of unicellular flagellated Protists.
- Penicillium is a genus of Ascomycetes (fungi).
- Hydra is a genus of small, simple, radially symmetrical fresh-water animals belonging to the phylum Cnidaria.
- Spongilla is a genus of freshwater sponges in the family Spongillidae found in lakes and slow streams.
Sponges belong to the phylum Porifera and are sessile metazoans. They are multicellular but have unspecialized cells that can transform into other types and that often migrate between the main cell layers and the mesohyl in the process.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
