Solution
The correct option is C Hypnotoxin Hydra has several nematocysts in cnidoblast. During predation reaction, it discharges and shoots with such force that it pierces the skin or chitinous exoskeleton of the prey and injects poisonous fluid. Hypnotoxin is the toxin that is secreted by the nematocysts which either paralyses the victim or kills it outright.
