Answer:

D. They live in freshwater, are free-living and reproduce sexually and asexually.

Explanation:

Most planarians are found in freshwater. Since they reproduce through fission, they reproduce asexually. However, since they are heteromorphic, they also reproduce sexually.

Answer:

I believe that the answer above is correct, and that D. “They live in fresh water, are free living, and reproduce sexually and asexually” is correct.

Explanation:

Some types of planarians live in water, and some live on land. Most planarians live in fresh water and sometimes stay in a big group. Some types are parasites, that means they live off of other living animals.
