Solution

The correct option is A Sporozoa
All members of the phylum Sporozoa are non-motile and parasitic. They form spores and hence, the name sporozoa. They lack locomotory structures and they are carried inside hosts by their body fluids. Many sporozoans cause serious diseases in humans. For example, Plasmodium causes malaria in humans.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
