    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               One of the most important characteristics of protozoa is the possession of contractile vacuoles. The main function of contractile vacuole is in osmoregulation. The excess water of protozoan body is got rid off by means of contractile vacuole which contract and expand at regular intervals. As these help in passing exces water, the excretory products of their body get dissolved and eliminated with the fluid of contractile vacuoles. Numerous non contractile food vacuoles help in digestion.
