Answer 2

Of the following organisms d) Euglena produces food through chlorophyll.

• Euglena can perform photosynthesis in presence of sunlight and produce food by itself because of chlorophyll.
• Euglena possess pigments as present in higher plants and hence, can behave like autotrophs. Therefore, option d) Euglena is correct.
• Prions are acellular organisms , it cannot make food using chlorophyll . Hence, option a) is incorrect.
• Amoeba obtains food by the process called endocytosis. It puts out pseudopodia to capture the prey. Hence, option b) is incorrect.
• Paramecium uses cilia movement to engulf the food to be stored in the gullet. Hence, it can't produce food through chlorophyll . So, option c) is incorrect.
