Solution

The correct option is A Balanoglossus
  • Balanoglossus is also called an acorn worm. They belong to the phylum Hemichordata and reside in the ocean.
  • These feed on small microbes and organic matter in the ocean. Starvation leads to a decreased nutrient supply and hence can lower the size of the acorn worm.

Thus the correct answer is option A.
