Solution

The correct option is C Echinodermata
Spiny skin is the specific characteristic of the phylum Echinodermata.
The term Echinodermata itself means Spiny skin.
Porifera on the other hand have porous skin and annelids have very smooth skin.
Some characteristics of Echinodermata are:
1. Spiny skin.
2. Radial symmetry
3. Exclusively marine.
4. Triploblastic.
So the correct answer is 'Echinodermata'.
