Solution
The correct option is C Gliding
Gliding motility allows a cyanobacteria or blue green algae to move over a solid surface. It requires enormous amount of energy. It takes place without the use of flagella. It is also known as flagella independent movement. It takes place along the axis of the cell and requires cell surface contact. The mechanism involves the release of the polysaccharide lime, type IV pili or gliding specific protein.So, the correct answer is option C.
