Solution
The correct option is D Myxomycetes
Myxomycetes are fungus like organism of kingdom Protista. Myxomycetes have two stages in its life cycle: uninucleate amoeba with or without flagella and multinucleate structure that is called plasmodium. Thalloid body of slime moulds is formed of slimy protoplasm that consist of large number of nuclei. Under favorable condition, plasmodium stage gives rise to fruiting body containing spores. Spores are spread by wind and germinate to give rise to uninucleate amoeboflagellate stage.Thus, the correct answer is option E.
