What else can I help you with?
Rigid shell or case of protozoans and rotifers is called?
The rigid shell or case of protozoans and rotifers is called a lorica. It provides protection and support for these microorganisms.
What is a group of protozoans living together as one called?
A group of protozoans living together as one is called a colony. Each individual protozoan in the colony retains its own identity but works together with the others for the collective benefit of the group.
A fluid-filled vesicle found in the cytoplasm of plant cells or protozoans?
The fluid-filled vesicle found in the cytoplasm of plant cells or protozoans is called a vacuole. Vacuoles in plant cells store water, nutrients, and waste products, and play a role in maintaining turgor pressure. In protozoans, vacuoles help with intracellular digestion and waste removal.
The fingerlike projections of cytoplasm used by some protozoans for movement and obtaining food are?
The fingerlike projections of cytoplasm used by some protozoans for movement and obtaining food are called pseudopodia. These structures help protozoans to extend their reach and capture food particles in their environment through a process known as phagocytosis.
What is the galaxy that contains earth called?
The galaxy that contains Earth is called the Milky Way.
Why are protozoans called protozoans?
They are called so beecause thes have no cell structure
What are protozoans that cannot move called?
Protozoans that cannot move are called sessile protozoans. These organisms are typically attached to a substrate and rely on external factors, such as water currents, to bring food to them.
What are mobil protists called?
protozoans!!!!!!!!!!!
What is an animal-like protist called?
protozoans
Rigid shell or case of protozoans and rotifers is called?
The rigid shell or case of protozoans and rotifers is called a lorica. It provides protection and support for these microorganisms.
Protozoans that move by extending lobes of cytoplasm are called?
sarcodinians
Protists that are single- celled and act like animals are called?
protozoans
What protozoa have shells made of silica?
Pretty sure its paramecium (phyla - ciliophora) Their shells are the most complex and have an outer layer called a pellicle that contains defense structures called trichocysts. (just reading it from my textbook)
Which group of protozoans move using psuedopods?
Protozoans that move using pseudopods belong to the group called amoeboids, which includes organisms like Amoeba and Entamoeba. These protozoans extend their cytoplasm to form temporary projections called pseudopodia, allowing them to crawl and capture food. Pseudopodia also play a crucial role in their locomotion and feeding strategies.
What are spore forming protozoans called?
Sporozoans; includes the organism, Plasmodium, which causes malaria.
What are parasitic protozoans called that live inside their hosts and may reproduce by means of a spore?
Cordyceps
Is protozoan a bacteria?
No. Protozoans, now called protists, are eukaryotes while bacteria are prokaryote cells.
