Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Porifera are indeed classified as acoelomates and demonstrate a cellular level of organisation. Platyhelminthes are acoelomates, not pseudocoelomates, and Cnidaria do not possess a coelom. Aschelminthes are classified as pseudocoelomates, but not all are free-living.
