    The correct option is A) suspension feeder

    Explanation:

    In biological terms, suspension feeder can be described as an organism which has the ability to feed on the organic matter present in water. The comb jellies have mucus or adhesives on their tentacles which makes them better adapted to engulf food. The mucus or adhesives stick the organic particles from the water to the tentacles and other body parts of the comb jellies. The comb jellies then engulf these particles.
