The correct response is:
**The polyps get most of their food from the algae.**
This is because many polyps, such as those found in coral reefs, have a symbiotic relationship with algae called zooxanthellae. The algae perform photosynthesis and provide the polyps with nutrients, while the polyps provide a protected environment and carbon dioxide for the algae.
