Hi , I want to ask that if one want to study the ocean animals under the polarization microscope, then what are the animals whose skin has more anisotropic structure and one can study them( I mean their cell imaging, the scattering from their cells, imaging their cell etc.) better under polarization microscope???

I used Polarization microscopy and investigated ocean animal but separately. However, I believe that the best candidates would be fish scales and plankton Crustacea with chitin exoskeleton.

Transparent or at least half-transparent ones, of course. I think polarization microscopy will allow to reveal far more details, in particular intraannual details of annual rings.
