The answer is (a.) Volvox multicellular; the other protists are not Eliminate

Volvox is a multicellular genus although they diverged from unicellular ancestors. Volvox cells have chlorophyll and they make their own food so option (b.) and option (d.) are false. An example of a unicellular organism is amoeba making the option (c.) false.
