Solution

The correct option is D Euglena
All protozoans are eukaryotic with well defined nucleus. They also have special locomotory structures.
Euglena is a protozoan and it has a whip-like structure called flagella for locomotion. It also contains chloroplasts hence autotrophic in nature.
Amoeba and Paramoecium are heterotrophic protozoans. They lack chloroplast.
Aspergillus is a fungus.
