Question

Match List I with List II :

List - I Organisms		List – II Mode of Nutrition
A.	Euglenoid	i.	Parasitic
B.	Dinoflagellate	ii.	Saprophytic
C.	Slime mould	iii.	Photosynthetic
D.	Plasmodium	iv.	Switching between photosynthetic and heterotrophic mode

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

• A. A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
• B. A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
• C. A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
• D. A-IV, B-II, С-III, D-I

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The corresponding matches are:
Euglenoids exhibit both photosynthetic (autotrophic) and heterotrophic nutritional capabilities. This aligns with A-IV.
Dinoflagellates are predominantly photosynthetic. This corresponds to B-III.
Slime moulds are saprophytic, deriving nutrition from dead organic matter. This matches C-II.
Plasmodium is parasitic, acquiring nutrients from a host. This corresponds to D-I.
Consequently, the correct selection is (3): A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I.
