- Some literature lists the 4 groups of protozoans as: 1) Flagellates 2) Amoebas 3) Ciliates 4) Sporozoans But other sources list the 4 groups as: 1) Flagellates 2) Amoebas 3) Heliozoans 4) Ciliates Compare and contrast heliozoans vs. sporozoans. Explain why one would replace the other in literature sources.arrow_forwardEuglena are not the only organisms that have flagellum. Zooflagellates are protozoa that also have flagella.
