Solution

The correct option is A B
Euglena lacks a cell wall, has contractile vacuole, has a flagellum and a light sensitive eyespot. These are animal-like characteristics. Euglena has chlorophyll and is a photosynthetic organism. This makes it a plant-like organism. It cannot be classified in the two kingdom classification due to this reason. Euglena has been kept under Kingdom Protista in Five Kingdom Classification due to this reason.
