  Use app Login Question  Describe briefly the four major groups of Protozoa? Hard Open in App Solution  Verified by Toppr The Protozoans which are included in the kingdom Protista, are single-celled hetrotrophic eukaryotic organisms. Depending on their mode of locomotion they are grouped into four;  The amoeboid protozoans - which use pseudopodia for movement e.g. Amoeba, Entamoeba The flagellated protozoans - which have flagella assisting their movement. e.g. Trypanosoma The ciliated protozoans - which have thousands of cilia whose coordinated movement helps the organism to move. e.g. Paramoecium The sporozoans - which do not have movement but are carried around by flow of fluids. They are usually parasites with spore-like stage in their life cycle. e.g. Plasmodium
