Solution

The correct answer is Ctenoplana.

Here's why:

  1. Diploblastic: This term refers to organisms that develop from two germ layers, the ectoderm and endoderm. Both Hydra and Ctenoplana are diploblastic, while Spongilla and Planeria are not.

  2. Radially symmetric: This means the organism can be divided into similar halves by more than two planes passing through the center. Both Hydra and Ctenoplana are radially symmetric.

  3. Exclusively marine: This is where the distinction comes in. Hydra is found in freshwater environments, not marine. Ctenoplana, on the other hand, is a type of comb jelly found exclusively in marine environments.

So, based on these characteristics, the correct answer is Ctenoplana.
