Protozoans have a diversity of mechanisms of locomotion, some are cilia, others flagella, lamelipods, undulipods, and pseudopods, all are made of proteins, and the cytoskeleton is involved. In organisms like amoeba where certain areas seem to project and advance first are called pseudopods, therefore we can say that the correct answer is option C.
