Paramecium typically have cilia (little tentacle things) all over their body to help them move. They are more of an oval shape than a blob like amoebas. They use the cilia to move and sweep up their food. They are typically found in fresh water so make sure you are viewing freshwater. Usually when you look at them, you see little tiny speckles inside of them.
Note: The cilia are usually hard to see. They may just look like a colored, thicker ring around the outside.

you can see them with a magnifying glass but they are really small

∙ 12y agoSome yes some no I have some in culture right now that are large enough to watch swim and even divide by looking in the bottle I have them in do not know what species they are though.

How do you you measure the length and width of a paramecium into microns when the diameter of field of microscope is 40x?
With a reticle under the microscope.
When a chemical is added to a microscope slide with a live paramecium the paramecium moves away from the chemical This movement is an example of?
its an example of a response to a stimulus.
WHAT TOOL DO YOU USE TO OBSERVE TO MOVEMENTS OF A paramecium?
light mircoscope. you little study island fiend.
Which would NOT be an appropriate procedure for the observation of a living paramecium under a compound light microscope?
yay
What is color of Paramecium?
The cilia are black. The pellicle surrounding the cell membranes is light blue
Which organism is best viewed by a microscope?
paramecium
Which is larger paramecium or coffee bean?
Coffee beans. A paramecium is too small to be seen without a microscope.

How can you identify parenchyma under microscope?
poo on it
What is best viewed under a microscope paramecium earthworm or grasshopper?
those are for two different kinds of microscopes. Electron microscopes would be for looking at the paramecium and dissecting microscopes would be necessary for the earthworm and grasshopper.
How do you use a sentence with microbe?
A microbe is a microscopic organism, like bacteria. The paramecium is a microbe. We saw a microbe under the microscope.
Are the cilia of paramecium visible under microscope?
Yes. It may be hard at first to see, but after focusing the lens they should be visible.
