Solution

The correct option is A Sessile
Sponges are poriferans. They are sessile organs and obtain food via the process of filter-feeding.
They have organs called Ostia that are in-current pores that allow water to enter their bodies and collar cells that create a water current inside their bodies.
So, the correct answer is 'Sessile'.
