Chlorophyta is considered to be closest to plants but do not resemble plants in having:
Correct answer: D. Multicellular sex organs
- A. Chlorophyll a and b
- B. Starch as stored food
- C. Cellulose cell wall
- D. Multicellular sex organs
Explanation
Chlorophyta is a phylum of green algae that live in marine habitats. Some of them are found in freshwater and on land. Some species have even become adapted to thriving in extreme environments, such as deserts, arctic regions, and hypersaline habitats. The predominant pigment is chlorophyll (particularly, a and b). The storage form in Chlorophyta is starch and the cell wall is comprised of Cellulose cell wall.

About Kingdom Protista
Kingdom Protista contains mainly unicellular eukaryotes, although some forms are colonial or multicellular, with varied nutritional and reproductive methods. Questions examine protozoans, algae and examples such as Amoeba, Paramecium and Euglena, while distinguishing protists from prokaryotes, fungi and true plants.

These protists are mostly unicellular (a few are colonial) organisms with spherical or elongated bodies with a single central nucleus. They possess from one to many long, whip-like flagella that enable them to move. Flagellates move rapidly, pulling themselves forward by lashing flexible flagella that are usually located at the anterior end. Examples include Trypanosome, Euglena, etc. The above give lines indicate which of the following groups of protozoa:
