Question

Give reason kingdom protista includes the organisms like euglena and desmids together which were placed in different kingdom earlier​

Answer 1

Explanation:

In old kingdom classification organisms like desmids and euglena were considered as plants and placed under plant kingdom since they can photosythesise their own food with the the help of chlorophyll and sunlight but later it was seen that they are locomotives too thus it became a confusion since they had characteristics of both plants and animals therefore later in the 5 kingdom classification they were placed in a separate group protista.
