Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
Rhizopoda are group of protozoan amoeboid organisms and possess locomotory organs in the form of cilia.
Suctoria are ciliates, which become sessile in their developed stage.
Mastigophora is a phylum of unicellular heterotrophic protozoans of the kingdom Protista.
Sporozoa is a large group of parasitic non-photosynthetic protists, that wholly lack flagellated stages and hence do not possess any locomotory organs.
