Slowest and most primitive type of locomotion in protozoan is
Slowest and most primitive type of locomotion in protozoan is
Show Hint
Amoeboid = oldest, slowest mode of movement using pseudopodia.
Updated On: May 12, 2025
- Flagellar movement
- Amoeboid locomotion
- Ciliary locomotion
- Undular movements
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Amoeboid movement, seen in protozoans like Amoeba, is the slowest and considered the most primitive. It occurs via the formation of pseudopodia and cytoplasmic streaming.
