Euglena is a genus of one celled organisms. They have no cell wall and are extremely flexible. They have a flagellum, which is a tail like structure used for movement. They have chloroplasts that allows them to make photosynthesis. However, if they remain in dark places in which photosynthesis cannot happen, they lose their chloroplasts and start eating other organisms.

What would lead you to believe that organisms from the genus Euglena belong to plants and not animals?

They are heterotrophic
They can move
They lack a cell wall
They have chloroplasts
They are autotrophs
They are unicellular
They are eukaryotes
