Solution

The correct option is B Tornaria.
The animals in Hemichordata have a short notochord present in the anterior part of the body. There are two classes in the Hemichordata known as Enteropneusta and Ptetrobranchia. The larva of the animals of the former class is called as tornaria (e.g., Balanoglossus).
