Regression metamorphosis refers to degenerative changes in which active larvae metamorphose into sessile adults. In Urochordata, the notochord is present only in the larval tail. The tail and nervous system are reduced in adults because adults are sedentary. Common examples of Urochordata are Ascidia, Salpa, Doliolum. Branchiostoma is a cephalochord and Brananoglossus is a hemichordoma.

So the correct answer is "Herdmania (Urochordata)" Option 2 is correct.
