Summary Introduction
Introduction
Protozoa are unicellular, single celled eukaryotic organism, it as animal like nature and have predation and motility, presence of protophyta as ability for the process photosynthesis. They are classified based on their DNA sequence, morphology, locomotion and based on their parasitic species as their host.
