Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The statement that is wrong is that millipedes have two pairs of appendages in each segment of the body. Millipedes actually have two pairs of appendages in most segments of the body, but not all segments. So, the correct answer is option A. Notice that the other options are correct. Prawns do have two pairs of antennae, animals belonging to the phylum Porifera are exclusively marine, and nematocysts are characteristic of the phylum Cnidaria.
