Uglena is a protist that can both eat food and can photosynthesize. When acting as a heterotroph, the?Euglenasurrounds a particle of food and consumes it by phagocytosis. When acting as an autotroph, theEuglena?utilizes chloroplasts to produce sugars by photosynthesis. So it is called plant - animal

HI,
As Euglena is a Hetrotrophic organism who can eat food as well as they can perform photosyenthesis process! so they consider as plant animals.

as whales are mammals who don't lays eggs as they gives birth to young ones ! so whales are not grouped under fishes.
