Question
An organism like Euglena that can switch between autotrophic nutrition (in light) and saprozoic or holozoic nutrition (in the dark or when organic matter is abundant) demonstrates which type of nutrition?
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
The document defines 'Mixotrophic Nutrition: Organisms such as Euglena can switch between autotrophic nutrition (in light) and saprozoic or holozoic nutrition (in the dark or when organic matter is abundant), making them nutritionally versatile.'
