Amebas That Have Filopodial Movement Structures Can Be Found in Which

Question

Amebas that have filopodial movement structures can be found in which categories?
A) trypanosomes and metamonads
B) diatoms and algae
C) dinoflagellates and apicomplexans
D) cellular and plasmodial slime molds
E) radiolarians and foraminiferans

Accepted Answer

Radiolarians and foraminiferans are two groups of protozoans that use filopodial structures to move. Radiolarians are marine plankton organisms that have radiating pseudopodia which help them in floating and capturing prey, while foraminiferans are also marine plankton organisms that create intricate shells around themselves, with filopodial structures extending through small openings in the shells for movement and feeding. The other options do not include any organisms that use filopodial movement structures.
