Solution

The correct option is B Liver fluke
Liver fluke belongs to the phylum Platyhelminthes. Platyhelminths are bilaterally symmetrical, triploblastic, acoelomate and dorsoventrally flattened organisms. A liver fluke has bilateral symmetry because it has a mirror image if it is cut in two halves. It is an acoelomate as it does not have a fluid-filled body cavity.
So, the correct answer is option B.
