Solution
The correct option is B Malpighian tubules- earthworms
Nerve net is a diffuse network of neurons that serves to conduct impulses in all directions and helps Hydra (cnidarians) to respond. Malpighian tubules are the excretory organs of insects. Nematocysts are the cells that are projected out of tentacles of Hydra in self-defense. Contractile vacuole in Amoeba serves in osmoregulation to counteract the constant inflow of water from surroundings into the body by the process of osmosis through the general body surface. A flame cell is a specialized excretory cell of Planaria.
