The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding Euglena, we need to analyze the assertion and the reason provided in the statement. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "Euglena is biflagellated and has a cell wall." - We need to verify if this statement is true or false. 2. **Analyzing Euglena**: - Euglena is indeed a biflagellated organism, meaning it has two flagella. - However, it does not have a traditional cell wall. Instead, Euglena has a flexible outer layer called a pellicle, which is made of protein and supported by microtubules. 3. **Conclusion about the Assertion**: - Since Euglena does not possess a cell wall, the assertion is **incorrect**. 4. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states, "Because cell wall is present, thus Euglena is a plant." - Since we have established that Euglena does not have a cell wall, this reason is also **incorrect**. 5. **Final Evaluation**: - Both the assertion and the reason are incorrect. - Therefore, the correct answer to the question is that both the assertion and the reason are wrong. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion and the reason are incorrect. ---
