The Euglena are unicellular organisms with flagella. These flagella are long whip-like tailsused for movement
That allows it to move from place to place looking for food.
Euglena move with a whip-like extension called a flagella. The flagella allows the euglena to move around. Only one celled organisms have a flagella.
Chloroplasts, part of a group of organelles called plastids.
Euglena- protist with flagella these protists move pulling themselves with long whiplike structure called flagella
The Euglena do not have a cell wall. What they have instead is a pellicle. The pellicle is what allows the shape to change.

it has hair like legs that let it move through water or other liquids

The students are planning to write labels for their diagram, explaining how each part contributes to the function of the euglena. Which label would be most appropriate for the chloroplast? Responses "This structure helps the euglena obtain minerals from its environment so that it can perform life functions." "This structure helps the euglena obtain minerals from its environment so that it can perform life functions." "This structure helps the euglena remove food wastes from the cell after their nutrition has been used for life processes." "This structure helps the euglena remove food wastes from the cell after their nutrition has been used for life processes." "This structure helps the euglena use up energy it has stored in the process of building new cell parts and growing."

The flagellum whips back and forth and propels the Euglena. Imagine the flagellum to be something like a flag and it just keeps waving allowing the organism to move. Or, you can also imagine the way butterfly stroke is performed in swimming. The flagellum moves in that way and propels the Euglena.
The disadvantages of euglena are mostly related to its structure and the fact that there is a debate that never ends on whether it is a plant or animal. The lack of routine genetic analysis is the main disadvantage.
Euglena have a primitive organelle called the eyespot which detects light.
