Solution

The correct option is A flagella
Protozoans have different modes of locomotion. Some of them, like paramecium, move with the help of cilia. Some of them, like euglena, move with the help of flagella. Amoeba moves with the help of pseudopodia and parasitic protozoans like plasmodium have nothing to move with.
