The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Organism**: The question asks about sponges, which belong to the phylum Porifera. 2. **Understand the Characteristics of Porifera**: Sponges are known to be the most primitive animals in the animal kingdom. They exhibit a very simple body structure. 3. **Cellular Level of Organization**: Sponges have a cellular level of organization, meaning they do not have true tissues. Instead, their cells are organized in a way that allows them to perform specific functions without forming tissues. 4. **Analyze the Options**: - **Option A**: No tissue - This aligns with the characteristics of sponges. - **Option B**: Epithelial tissues only - This is incorrect as sponges do not have true epithelial tissues. - **Option C**: Epithelial and connective tissues only - This is also incorrect since sponges lack both types of tissues. - **Option D**: All four types of tissue - This is incorrect as sponges do not possess any of the four basic tissue types (epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous). 5. **Conclusion**: Based on the understanding that sponges do not have any tissues, the correct answer is **Option A: No tissues**. ---
