Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Euglena is a unicellular eukaryotic organism belonging to the kingdom Protista. It is photosynthetic in the presence of sunlight (autotrophic) but can act as a heterotroph in the dark. Crucially, it lacks a cellulose cell wall. Instead, it has a flexible, protein-rich outer layer called a pellicle that allows it to change shape.
