Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Connecting link between Annelida and arthropoda is Peripatus.
Peripatus is a genus of velvet worms in the Peripatidae family. The name "peripatus" is also used to refer to the Onychophora as a whole, although this group comprises many other genera besides Peripatus.
It is the connecting link between Annelida and arthopoda which means it has characteristics of both of them. Segmented bodies and thin cuticles like Annelida also have tracheal respiration and open respiratory system like arthopods. This genus is viviparous, with mothers supplying nourishment to their embryos through a placenta.
