Solution

Taenia
  • A member of phylum Platyhelminthes. They are acoelomate and excrete by flame cells or Protonephridia. 
Paramoecium
  • A protozoan member. They have contractile vacuoles for osmoregulation.
Periplaneta
  • Malpighian tubules are the excretory structures of most of the insects including cockroaches.
  • Malpighian tubules help in the removal of nitrogenous wastes and osmoregulation.
  • In addition, the fat body, nephrocytes and urecose glands also help in excretion.
Pheretima
  • Nephridia are the tubular excretory structures of earthworms and other annelids.
  • Nephridia help to remove nitrogenous wastes and maintain a fluid and ionic balance.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
