Solution
The correct option is B Ammonia and it is removed from whole surface of body
Cnidarians are primitive animals having tissue level of body organisation. The animals don't have a well developed excretory system. Hydra is an aquatic animal in which main excretory substance is ammonia which is excreted through diffusion from body cells of general surface.
