Vedclass · Answer

(B) Organisms that are sessile or attached to a substratum, such as those in the phylum $Cnidaria$ (e.g., $Hydra$, $Sea$ $anemone$) or $Porifera$, often exhibit radial symmetry. Radial symmetry is an evolutionary adaptation for sessile organisms, as it allows them to interact with their environment and capture food from all directions equally, since they cannot move to hunt or escape.
