Solution

The correct option is C Presence of hooks and suckers
Suckers help these worms cling to their hosts. Parasitic flatworms have hooks on their mouths that allow them to securely attach to their hosts,
however, they eat through their mouth and lack a digestive system.
So, the correct option is 'A'.
