Jeremiah claims that a single-celled organism called a Euglena is a plant because it is eukaryotic, performs cellular respiration and photosynthesis, needs sunlight, and is unicellular.
Why is Jeremiah wrong to say that a Euglena is a plant?
A. It performs respiration.
B. It is unicelluar.
C. It performs photosynthesis.
D. It is eukaryotic.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct option is B. It is unicelluar.

Explanation:

Euglena can be described as a single-celled protozoan which can live in fresh as well as saline water.

Plants can be described as multicellular organisms which are capable of making their own food by the process of photosynthesis. Hence, as a plant is multicellular whereas euglena is unicellular, this characteristic is wrong in Jeremiah's claim.

Other options like respiration, photosynthesis and eukaryotes are correct because plants have all these qualities and euglena and plants share these characteristics in common.

B
