Two species of Amoeba $X$ and $Y$ were kept in fresh water and adapted to it. Species $X$ developed a contractile vacuole. When both were transferred to sea water and adapted,both $X$ and $Y$ lost their contractile vacuole. From these observations,we conclude that:

    Both $X$ and $Y$ are marine species.
  • B
    Species $Y$ is marine and $X$ is fresh water.
