Which of the following is sedentary in adult and active in larval stage?

Correct answer: A. Sponge

  • A. Sponge
  • B. Leech
  • C. Salamander
  • D. Grasshopper

Explanation

The correct answer is Sponge. Sponges have a sedentary adult stage where they are attached to a substratum, while their larval stages (Amphiblastula and Parenchymula) are free-living and active. Leeches, salamanders, and grasshoppers are all active in both their adult and larval stages, making them incorrect choices for this question.
