FYI: BLASTOCYSTIS HOMINIS is not a PROTOZOAN! This is a common misconception among students, even among academicians (since old textbooks classify B. hominis under protozoans)
On the basis of molecular data, the organism has been classified as a stramenopile. Organisms such as diatoms, chrysophytes, water molds, and slime nets are other examples of stramenopiles.
