Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
A digestive system with a one-way tube, a mouth, and an anus allows for the specialization of different parts of the digestive tract to carry out various tasks of digestion simultaneously. This setup enables a more efficient digestion process compared to a two-way sac-like cavity, where food enters and exits through the same opening.
