Match the following with respect to Protistans
List – I | List – II | ||
A) | Primitive relatives of animals. | i) | Euglenoids |
B) | Form fruiting bodies | ii) | Diatoms |
C) | Chief producers of oceans | iii) | Slime moulds |
D) | Live usually in stagnant freshwater bodies. | iv) | Protozoan protists |
All protozoan protists are heterotrophs and live as predators or parasites and believed to be primitive relatives of animals. In unfavourable conditions, the slime moulds form fruiting bodies bearing spores with cell walls at their tips. Diatoms are chief producers of oceans as they outnumber other photosynthetic organisms of marine habitats. Euglenoids usually occur in stagnant freshwater bodies.
