The correct answer is:
A

Among all plant-like Protista (algae such as green algae, brown algae, red algae, diatoms, dinoflagellates), the universal primary photosynthetic pigment is chlorophyll a.

Other chlorophylls (B, C, D) may occur in specific groups as accessory pigments, but chlorophyll a is the main primary pigment present in all photosynthetic eukaryotes.
