Solution

The correct option is A Meandrina
Meandrina gyrosa is known as boulder brain coral. It is found in the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. It is characterised by large, domed colonies, which may be up to two meters across. It is called as brain coral due to the presence of a meandering network of ridges and valleys on its surface.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
