Solution
The correct option is C Chloragogen cells
Chloragogen cells are present in the family Annelida. Chlorogogen cells are excretory in function. The chlorogogen cells take up excretory matter from the blood capillaries of the gut and from the coelomic fluid of the coelom. They also store glycogen and fat. So, these cells are analogous to the liver of vertebrates.
