Solution
The correct option is C Blue green algae
The blue-green algae grow in the moist area and cover the surface of the wet soil forming a scum. They are prokaryotes which resemble the bacteria. They have the pigments called as phycocyanin which gives the bluish green color and masks the color of the pigment chlorophyll. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
