The correct option is B Sarcodina
Amoebas belong to the class Sarcodina, which has as its principle-distinguishing feature the presence of pseudopodia. Rhizopoda contains all organisms that form lobopodia, which are broad pseudopodia, or filopodia, which are thread-like psuedopodia.
So, the correct answer is 'Sarcodina'
