Solution

The correct option is A

Their body size and number of cells is small


Amoeba does not require any respiratory pigment to transport oxygen. The possible reason could be that their body size and the number of cells are small, unlike multicellular organisms which are large and have specialized organs. Due to multicellularity and specialisation, diffusion alone will not suffice for transporting oxygen.
