Solution

The correct option is A

Contractile vacuole


Amoeba is a simple, single-celled eukaryotic organism that lacks a definite body shape. It has contractile vacuole to regulate the water content of the cell and also for excreting wastes. Whereas, nephridia and malpighian tubules are excretory organs of earthworm and insects respectively.
