Which protist has structures that are characteristic of both autotrophs and heterotrophs?
Euglena is a protist that has structures characteristic of both autotrophs and heterotrophs. It contains chloroplasts for photosynthesis like autotrophs, but can also absorb nutrients from its environment like heterotrophs. This allows Euglena to switch between being autotrophic and heterotrophic depending on its environmental conditions.
Are euglena motile?
no because they are autotrophs and dont need to move around quickly
What shows you that a eulena is a autotroph?
I assume that you mean Euglena and not eulena. In Euglena there is the presence of Chlorophyll in Chloroplasts (the chloroplasts give it the greenish color). Chloroplasts are basically the way that basically all autotrophs make food. The chloroplasts are filled with chlorophyll which is involved in photosynthesis. Therefore, since chloroplasts are found in autotrophs and Euglena has chloroplasts, it only makes sense that Euglena is an autotroph
Is protista autotrophs or hetrotrophs?
Both!Some protists are photosynthetic and therefore autotrophs eg Euglena and Chlamydomonas.Other protists feed like animals and so are heterotrophic eg Amoeba.
What you euglena?
Although catigorized as an animal life question, a euglena is actually a protist. Euglenas are autotrophs (they contain chloraphyll and produce their own food) and are motile (able to move on their own). ---AIIB_great_AB
Are euglena heterotrophs or autotrophs?
Euglena's are both heterotrophic and autotrophic because they can make their own food with photosynthese and also absorb food from their environment.
What is the most important structural difference between algae and euglena?
One of the most important structural differences between algae and euglena is that euglena possesses a flagellum, which allows it to move independently, while most algae lack this structure and rely on water currents for movement. Additionally, euglena have a distinct eye spot called a stigma, which helps them detect light, whereas this feature is not present in most algae.
Do plants and other autotrophs such as Euglena and seaweed do respiration too?
All plants must have a way of getting energy. Most plants even underwater plants such as seaweed use photosynthesis and cellular respiration to get energy.
What is the problem with 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.
What is the scientific name for euglena?
Euglena gracilis
Is a blueberry a autotrophs?
Autotrophs because they make their food by their own
What is the common name of euglena gracilis?
The common name of Euglena gracilis is "euglena."
