The correct Answer is:
To address the question regarding Spongilla, leech, dolphin, and penguin, we need to analyze each of these organisms and identify a common characteristic among all four. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Organisms**: - **Spongilla**: A freshwater sponge belonging to the phylum Porifera. - **Leech**: A segmented worm belonging to the phylum Annelida. - **Dolphin**: A marine mammal belonging to the order Cetacea. - **Penguin**: A flightless bird belonging to the order Sphenisciformes. 2. **Examine Their Characteristics**: - **Spongilla**: As a sponge, it is a simple multicellular organism that lacks true tissues and organs. - **Leech**: It is a more complex organism with a segmented body and a true coelom. - **Dolphin**: A highly complex organism with a developed nervous system, social behavior, and the ability to communicate. - **Penguin**: A bird with feathers, a beak, and the ability to fly (in the evolutionary sense, as they are adapted to swimming). 3. **Identify Common Traits**: - One of the most significant common traits among these organisms is that they all belong to the animal kingdom (Kingdom Animalia). - They all exhibit some form of locomotion: Spongilla through water currents, leeches through muscular contractions, dolphins through swimming, and penguins through swimming and waddling. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct statement about all four organisms is that they are all members of the animal kingdom and exhibit some form of locomotion. ### Final Answer: All four organisms (Spongilla, leech, dolphin, and penguin) are members of the animal kingdom (Kingdom Animalia). ---
