What else can I help you with?
Small structure in a cell that performs a specific function is the?
Eukaryotes have organelles that proform various functions for the cell.
What is a pseudopod and how are they used?
A pseudopod is a temporary bulge-like extension of the cell membrane used by some single-celled organisms for movement and capturing food. It is formed by the extension of cytoplasm in the direction of movement or prey. Organisms like amoebas use pseudopods to engulf food particles or to move by extending and retracting these temporary projections.
Is a nucleus a cell organelle or a cell part?
Yes, nucleus is an organelle. The word means little organ. Organs make up a complete plant or animal.
What is the name of an organelle that contains a cell's DNA?
The nucleus is the organelle that contains the cells DNA.
What is the largest organelle within a eukaryotic cell?
The largest organelle in a eukaryotic cell is usually the nucleus, which contains the cell's genetic material in the form of DNA.
What is a psueudopod?
A pseudopod is a temporary protrusion of the cell membrane in amoeboid cells, used for movement and capturing food. It is formed through the cytoplasmic streaming of the cell, allowing the cell to change shape and move in its environment.
A tube formed by the inward extension of the cell membrane is called a?
A tube formed by the inward extension of the cell membrane is called a pseudopod. This structure is used by cells for processes such as engulfing particles or migrating.
What is a Single cell minute invertebrate such as amoeba?
pseudopod
What functions do solvable and pseudopod have in common?
The center of the cell
What are structures used for movement formed by oozing cytoplasm?
pseudopod
Structure used for movement formed by oozing cytoplasm?
pseudopod
How amoebae move?
An amoeba is a shapeless cell which can extrude a part of itself, which is called a pseudopod (literally, false foot) and then the remainder of the cell can flow into that pseudopod, at which point the amoeba has moved.
Is chloroplast a cell?
No it is not a cell.It is an cell organelle.
Pseudopod in plant cells?
A pseudopod is a temporary protrusion of the cell membrane in some protozoa and amoeboid cells for movement and feeding. It is not typically found in plant cells, which have a rigid cell wall that provides structural support and protection. Plant cells primarily rely on structures like flagella and cilia for movement.
When it moves the amoeba's flexible cell membrane bulge out and the cell's flows in the direction of bulge?
When an amoeba moves, its flexible cell membrane extends outward, forming a pseudopod, or temporary arm. This bulging allows the cytoplasm to flow into the newly formed pseudopod, propelling the cell in that direction. The process is driven by the amoeba's ability to reorganize its internal cytoskeleton, enabling it to change shape and navigate its environment. Overall, this movement is a key characteristic of amoeboid locomotion.
What is the whiplike tail on a pseudopod?
It is called the Flagellum :D Flagellum- a long whiplike outgrowth from a cell that acts as an organ.
Is nucleus a part of cell organelle?
I is not a part of a cell organelle because it is the largest organelle responsible for reproduction& metabolic activities of the cell
