Solution

The correct option is A Two
Oscillatoria is a filamentous cyanobacterium that moves by oscillating or sliding back and forth. It doesn't possess any flagellum for the purpose of locomotion. Mycoplasma or pleuro pneumoniae like organisms move by gliding and lack any flagellum. E.coli is a bacterium and a prokaryotic organism possessing a flagellum for its locomotion. Spirulina is another example of a cyanobacteria, with a flagellum
So, the correct answer is 'Two'.
