A) These are all unicellular protists
B) They have flagella
C) They produce spores
D) These are ail parasites
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Tiypanosoma, Noctiluca, Monocystis and Giardia are all unicellular protists. Trypanosom a gambiense is the single celled, parasitic zoo flagellate causing trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness. Giardia or the Grand old man of the intestine is a diplomonadid parasitic flagellate occurring in the intestine of man and other animals and causes giardiasis or diarrhoea (i.e., very loose and frequent stool containing large quantity of fat). Noctilluca is a marine, colourless dinoflagellate. It is a voracious predator and has a long, motile tentacle, near the base of which, its single short flagellum emerges. Monocystis is a microscopic, unicellular endoparasitic protozoan found in the coelom and seminal vesicles of earthworm. As it is an endoparasite, it does not possess any special structure for locomotion.
