Solution

The correct option is D Protista
  • Mixotrophic nutrition refers to organisms which are both autotrophs and heterotrophs.
  • A mixotroph is an organism that can use a mix of different sources of energy and carbon, instead of having a single trophic mode on the continuum from complete autotrophy at one end to heterotrophy at the other.
  • Mixotrophic nutrition is exhibited by the kingdom Protista.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Protista'.
