Solution

The correct option is D

Algae


All algal, fungal and bacterial cells possess cell walls. The algal cell wall is mainly composed of cellulose, fungal cell wall comprise chitin and bacterial cell wall is mainly made up of peptidoglycan.

Protozoa are single-celled eukaryotes that commonly show characteristics usually associated with animals, most notably mobility and heterotrophy. Like animal cells, protozoans also lack a cell wall.
