How does euglena get oxygen?

Euglena obtains oxygen through a process called diffusion. It absorbs oxygen from the surrounding water through its cell membrane, which allows gases to pass in and out of the cell. This process enables euglena to survive by taking in the oxygen it needs for respiration.
