Answer

A is false but R is true.

ReasonA is false as all protists do not use pseudopodia for locomotion but protists show diverse locomotory structures.
R is true as most protists are aquatic. They may move using water currents and also by specialized structures like cilia or flagella.

Therefore, A is false but R is true is the correct option.
