Solution

The correct options are
B Mostly marine animals
C Pore bearing animals
Sponges are sedentary in nature, i.e., they are non motile and are attached to some solid support. Most of the members of this phylum are mainly found in marine habitat. They have pores all over their surface to allow oxygen and nutrients in water to be absorbed. They have minimal tissue differentiation, even less when compared to coelenterates.
