Correct Answer

The correct answer is C, placed in preservatives for later examination.  Liquid (diarrheic) specimens (which are more likely to contain trophozoites) should be examined within 30 minutes of passage and not within 30 minutes of arrival in the laboratory.  If this is impossible, the specimens should be preserved to avoid disintegration of the trophozoites.
