There are three ways you can solve this problem:

1.- You can guide yourself through knowledge, and therefore know the answer. There isn´t much to explain here.

2.- You can eliminate obvious options such as sarcodina or apicomplexa. Euglenoid isn´t an extremely obvious removal since it has a flagela, which can be mistook by a hairy-structure. But, if you do things correctly, obtaining your answer wont be a problem.

3.- You can do an etymologic-guess, which works really well in biology. If you guide yourself this way, you´ll bump into the answer quickly --> "cilio" means hair and according to the description the specimen was covered in hairy structures.

Hope it helped,

Dodder is a parasitic plant, which has roots for support and absorption of nutrients from the host plant. Determine what kind of
skad [1K]
The original roots of dodder usually die. As a parasitic plant that cannot produce its own chlorophyll, it breaks away from its root system as the roots has no apparent root cap nor apical meristems. Hence the "root" is not performing its very function of water and nutrient uptake. It then produces haustoria, a root-shaped fungi which penetrates host plant which makes the dodder parasitic.
