Solution
The correct option is C Mollusca
Hemocyanins are proteins that transport oxygen throughout the bodies of some invertebrate animals, like molluscs and arthorpods. These metalloproteins contain two copper atoms, that reversibly bind a single oxygen molecule. They are second only to hemoglobin in frequency of use as an oxygen transport molecule. Hence, option D is correct.
