Solution

The correct option is A Hydra
Moulting is the manner in which an animal routinely casts off a part of its body, either at specific times of the year or at specific points in its life cycle.
It is commonly seen in arthropods. In the given options, Hydra is cnidarian, not an arthropod and it does not undergo moulting.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
