Answer:

1. charophytes

Step-by-step explanation:

  • These are macrophytes that grow entire in the freshwater and become fossilized by the calcification oozes, going back to the Paleozoic era about 250 million years ago.
  • And they are unicellular to multi-cellular organisms also found in moist terrestrial habitats.
