Solution

The correct option is B Chalmydomonas-reticulate
Chlamydomonas is a microscopic unicellular biflagellate green alga, which occurs in stagnant freshwater, generally rich in ammonium salts. It has two contractile vacuoles for osmoregulation and excretion and a cup-shaped chloroplast for photosynthesis with a pyrenoid body for storage of starch and a red eye spot for photosensitivity.
