Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
C

Blue-green algae (Cyanobacteria) resemble bacteria because they are prokaryotic and lack a true nucleus.

They also resemble red algae due to the presence of phycobilin pigments like phycocyanin.

Hence, the closest resemblance is with red algae and bacteria.
