    Answer:

    Euglena lacks cell wall

    Explanation:

    Although euglena has many features of plant cells like

    • It is eukaryotic
    • It has a nucleus
    • It can make its own food

    But it lacks cell wall which is a defining feature of plant cells. Instead of cell wall it has a pellicle which is made of protein and has a protective function for euglena. Thus it can not be clearly classified as a plant.
