The correct answer is option 1, Coelenterata. Coelenterata is a phylum that includes organisms such as sea anemones and sea pens. Sea anemones, like Adamsia, are characterized by their soft, cylindrical bodies and tentacles surrounding their mouth. Sea pens, like Pennatula, are colonial cnidarians that have a flexible stalk and feathery polyps. Coelenterata is also commonly referred to as Cnidaria, which includes other organisms like jellyfish and coral. They are known for their radial symmetry and the presence of specialized cells called cnidocytes, which are used for defense and capturing prey. Coelenterates have a simple body plan and lack true organs or a complete digestive system. They primarily inhabit marine environments.
