Answer:

A. it is photosynthetic

Explanation:

A. it is photosynthetic - this is true - chlorophyll is a photosynthetic pigment that traps light energy to power food production. It present in green plants

B. it contains vascular tissues - this is false - eubacteria are single celled organisms that do not form tissues

C. it contains mitochondria - this is false - prokaryotic cells do not contain membrane-bound organelles like mitochondria

D. it is heterotrophic - this is false, plants and many bacteria are not heterotrophic, which means they consume other organisms for their food supply rather than creating their own (autotrophic)
