A parasitic protist has been isolated and is on a microscope slide. How could you
determine whether it belongs to te Apicomplexans or Excavata supergroup?
Look for spores which would indicate Excavata
Look for flagella which would indicate Excavata
There is no way to distinguish based on structural characteristics.
Look for flagella which would indicate Apicomplexans
