Expert Solution
Step 1

Paramecium and Euglena both belong to the kingdom Protista which includes all eukaryotic unicellular organisms. As these are eukaryotic so the cells will be having all the cell organelles in well-defined nucleus and cytoplasm. Protists are generally aquatic  but can also be terrestrial. Protists are divided in 5 groups namely:

  1. Chrysophytes
  2. Dinoflagellates
  3. Euglenoids
  4. Slime Moulds
  5. Protozoans
