Plants and algae cells have chloroplasts, photosynthesis is conducted in chloroplasts. Paramecium do not photosynthesize they get their food from the water they live in. So they do not need chloroplasts.
What would happen to the paramecium if it did not have a contractile vacuole?
If a paramecium did not have a contractile vacuole or it did not work it would fill with water and lyse.
What kind of cell do paramecium have?
paramecium is a unicellular organism and functions as a living being with only the ONE cell makes it pretty much physiologically specialized
What kingdom is octopus in?
For the paramecium to move forward, its cilia beat on an angle, backward in unison. This means that the paramecium moves by spiralling through the water on an invisible axis. For the paramecium to move backward, the cilia simply beat forward on an angle in unison. If the paramecium runs into a solid object, the cilia changes its direction and beats forward, causing the paramecium to go backward. The paramecium turns slightly and goes forward again. If it runs into the solid object again it will repeat this process until it can get past the object
An object floating on the surface when a wave passes?
== == == == The object is moving the speed of the water, not the speed of the wave. Example: when you are riding in a car, you are moving the the speed of the car not the speed of the bump in the road. The bumps in the water are mostly caused by wind & are like bumps in the road, but these bumps move. in an ellipse
Which protist has an oral groove?
The paramecium.
Will an object thrown in outer space eventually stop?

do paramecium have pellicles
Is a paramecium a vertebrate or invertebrate?
No, paramecium has pellicle
