Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Trichonympha is a protistan genus that lives in the intestine of many if not most termite species. They are symbionts in that they break down the cellulose in the wood and plant fibres their host eats and get nutrition in return. These protists are unable to survive elsewhere whereas termites starve to death in their absence.

Biological Classification
The process of grouping living organisms into categories is called biological classification. The most modern 5-kingdom classification was put ahead by an eminent scientist R.H.Whittaker. The five-kingdom classification is based on the criteria like cell structure, mode of nutrition, body form, and reproduction. One of the most important characteristics of this system is that it follows the evolutionary sequence of living organisms. The organisms are classified into distinct taxa or levels like Kingdom, Phylum, Division, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. The 5 kingdoms are as follows:
