Which protists use cilia for locomotion?
Paramecium, becasue the cilia floats through flugela and gets food through hair like structurs
What is a hair-like structure used for movement in a cell?
A cilium or flagella is a "whip-" or "hair-like" structure that tiny critters use for propulsion.
Hairlike structure with the capacity of movement?
the hairlike structure that has the capacity for movement in bacteria is filia
Do paramecium use chlorophyll?
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.
If a paramecium were to swim from a hypotonic environment to an isotonic one would the activity of its contractile vacuole increase or decrease?
The activity of the contractile vacoule would decrease. While in the hypotonic solution, water was moving into the paramecium because it had a higher solute concentration that the solution that it was in and water follows solute. So, the isotonic solution would contain the same solute concentration as the paramecium so there would be no net water movement. Therefore, the contractile vacoule would decrease in its activity because there would be no water entering or exiting the paramecium.
What structure does the paramecium use for respiration?
Their cell wall.
How are the paramecium cell structure like?
The cell structure of the paramecium does not change.
Which structures surround a paramecium?
short, hairlike strands called cilia sourround a paramecium. They use them for feeding and movement.:)
What structure does the euglena have that the amoeba and paramecium do not have?
They're both Eukaryote and both have nuclei's
What is the structure of motility in paramecium?
cilia
What structure allow the paramecium to move?
The cilia cause the paramecium to move.
Which structure of a paramecium is analogous to a reserve copy of all the cell's genes?
Micronucleus is a structure of a paramecium that is analogous to a reserve library
What is the throat like structure in a paramecium?
I don’t know
What structures do paramecia use for circulation?
Like the Sponge and other organisms with undeveloped internal circulation mechanisms, the Paramecium relies on water movement through the paramecium's pores to serve as a method of internal circulation. The paramecium has no need for a more complex system because of its size, and relying on diffusion of nutrients through water and tidal movement is more energy effective
Which organ in paramecium helps in locomotion?
whiplash movement of their cilia
Why do you use cotton on a paramecium slide?
To slow the paramecium down.
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.
