Solution

The correct option is A Attain complex body shapes and thus locomote more precisely
Annelids have successfully combined true coelomic cavities and repeating segmentation to more precisely control body movements compared with the anatomically simpler worms.
Segmentation of annelids allows them for more complex coordinated movement.
