paramecium use motile cells/hairs called cillia to swim as it were.ameboea use a form of locomotion.that is it heaves part of it self forward and pulls it self along.on amicroscopic scale this system of motion works in liquids.

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 would happen to the paramecium if the water-expelling vesicle stopped working?

The paramecium would eventually die because the paramecium wouldn't get any water and without the water-expelling vesicle the paramecium can't get the water out without getting other bacterias while doing so.


What is an example of protist?

Some examples include Amoeba, trypanosoma, plasmodium, giardia, diatom, even seaweed. They are pretty much the leftovers that don't fit in any other category. They all belong to the kingdom Protista, although this grouping may be paraphyletic.


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.


When would mitosis occur in amoeba?

Amoeba reproduces by binary fission .


Why would an Amoeba die if placed in salt water?

Freshwater amoeba in salt water will have a higher solute content outside of the amoeba. The water in the amoeba will want to move out of the amoeba and into the environment. This will cause the amoeba to shrivel and die.


Does the paramecium have a front end?

Good question but, I believe the correct phrasing would be does a front end have the paramecium.

Where does ameba and paramecium live?

These are fresh water protists. Lakes, streams and ponds would harbor paramecium and amoebae.


Suppose the paramecium were placed in a container of sea water what would you observe?

Usually, the paramecium used in a study like this are freshwater. Because the water inside the paramecium has a lower salt concentration, it moves out and shrivels the paramecium up, drying it out.
