uranmaximum [27]

The correct answer is Protozoa.

A class of single-celled, non-prokaryotic organisms known as protozoa.These could either be parasitic or free-living in nature. These are heterotrophs that procreate via binary fission in an asexual manner. Numerous unrelated or tangentially related organisms make up the Protozoa. Sarcodina, Flagellates, Ciliates, and Sporozoans are the four main divisions. There are two stages in the life cycle of certain protozoa: the proliferative stage (trophozoites), and the resting stage (cysts). Trophozoites are the proliferative stage of the protozoa, which is when they divide and reproduce. The protozoa can tolerate adverse environmental circumstances like toxic chemicals, intense heat, and nutrition and water shortages because of their resting cyst shape.
