Solution

The correct option is B Arcella and Difflugia
  • Protozoan organisms are usually single-celled and heterotrophic (using organic carbon as a source of energy), belonging to kingdom Protista. They live in a wide variety of moist habitats including freshwater, marine environments, and the soil.
  • Examples for freshwater shelled protozoans include Arcella and Difflugia.
  • They both produce shells(or tests) from mineral particles.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Arcella and Difflugia'.
