Question

question 2
the euglena we will examine in this lab belong to which of the following protist groups?
a opisthokonts
b amoebozoans
c sar
d excavates
e archaeplastids

Explanation:

Euglena is a type of protist. Excavates is a major group of protists. Euglena has morphological and biological characteristics that align with the Excavates group. For example, some members of Excavates have feeding grooves (a characteristic that can be related to Euglena's structure and function in some ways in terms of how it interacts with its environment for feeding - though Euglena can also photosynthesize). Opisthokonts include animals and fungi - like groups, Amoebozoans are amoeba - like with lobe - shaped pseudopodia, SAR is a large group with stramenopiles, alveolates, and rhizarians (Euglena doesn't fit well here), and Archaeplastids are related to plants.

Answer:

D. Excavates
