You collect a specimen from a deep jungle survey. It appears to be a new species. You

get to name it, but before you can, you must classify it first. It appears to be single celled,
and contains chloroplasts. When a few of them are kept in the dark too long, they die.
Under the microscope you can see a dark colored nucleus. What classification fits them
best?
O A. Archaeabacteria
B. Fungus
C. Plant
OD. Plant-like protist

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. Plant-like protist

Step-by-step explanation:

Protists are a broad collection of not so strictly connected microscopic unicellular (single celled) eukaryotic organisms that is neither a fungus, plant, or an animal but are categorized under the kingdom known as Protista

Protophyta is a known plant-like protist that is made of single celled algae

Other single-celled chloroplast containing protists are diatoms, and dinoflgelates.
