Solution

The correct option is B Parenchyma
In platyhelminthes the mesoderm forms a type of connective tissue called parenchyma which fills the body spaces and separates internal organs from the body wall. So there is no coelom hence, they are called acoelomate animals. So, the correct answer is 'Parenchyma'.
