Solution

The correct option is D Calcarea
Hydrozoa, Scyphozoa and Anthozoa are classes of the Cnidarians or Coelenterata that all have similar body morphology with a polyp and/or medusa. The class Calcarea consists of Sponges from the phylum Porifera whose body is covered with a calcareous shell and spicules but no polyp.
So, the correct answer is 'Calcarea'.
