Find the incorrect statement from the following.
Options
- AMajority of Euglenoids are fresh water organisms found in stagnant water.
- BSlime moulds are saprophytic protists.
- CAll protozoans are heterotrophic and live as predators or saprophytes.
- DDinoflagellates are mostly marine and photosynthetic.
Correct answer
C. All protozoans are heterotrophic and live as predators or saprophytes.
Step-by-step solution
All protozoans are unicellular animal-like organisms broadly divided into three groups-photosynthetic, slime molds, and protozoans. Photosynthetic protists are photoautotrophic like diatoms, dinoflagellates, and euglenoids. Protozoan protists include sarcodines/amoebae, zooflagellates, sporozoans, and ciliates.
