What are two other organisms that belong to the same kingdom as euglena?

Euglena belongs to the kingdom Protista. Two other organisms that also belong to this kingdom are Amoeba and Paramecium. Like Euglena, both Amoeba and Paramecium are single-celled eukaryotes, but they differ in their structures and modes of movement. While Euglena has characteristics of both plants and animals, Amoeba is known for its ability to change shape and Paramecium is recognized for its cilia used for locomotion.


What does euglena and amoeba eat?

Euglena primarily feeds through photosynthesis, using chloroplasts to convert sunlight into energy, but it can also absorb nutrients from its environment when light is unavailable. Amoeba, on the other hand, is a heterotrophic organism that primarily consumes smaller organisms, such as bacteria and other protozoa, by engulfing them through a process called phagocytosis. Both organisms exhibit flexibility in their feeding strategies according to their environmental conditions.


Where could I find paramecium Euglena and Amoeba?

It should be fairly easy to find paramecia in freshwater ponds, and basically any other mass of fresh water, especialy those with lots of water plants in them, Euglena is just the group of protists they are in. You can find amoebas in exactly the same kind of places, but the amoeba is slightly more sensitive to pollution, so you are less likely to find it in polluted areas.


What do you think has a better chance of survival a Euglena in an environment with no light or an amoeba in an environment with other organims?

An Euglena in an environment with no light has a better chance of survival because Euglenas are photosynthetic organisms that can make their own food using sunlight. Amoebas in an environment with other organisms may face competition for resources or predation, which could decrease their chances of survival.


What organisms does euglena eat?

Euglena is a single-celled protist that is capable of photosynthesis, producing its own food using sunlight and carbon dioxide. However, when sunlight is limited, euglena can also act as a heterotroph and consume organic matter, such as bacteria or other small organisms, through phagocytosis. This dual mode of nutrition allows euglena to survive in various environmental conditions.

In what ways are euglena different then paramecium and amoeba?

The most obvious difference between an amoeba and a paramecium or euglena is that the amoeba has no overall shape, and the entire cell changes its shape as the amoeba moves. The paramecium and the euglena both have definite shapes which they do not alter. The amoeba can engulf food particles at any point on its own cell membrane, but the paramedium has an oral groove which is where it ingests food particles. And the euglena also has a chloroplast, unlike the other two (or any other protozoan).

Is an amoeba an autotrophic?

Amoebae are heterotrophic, meaning they must eat other organisms to survive.

Name three unicellular organisms?

Amoeba: A type of protist that moves by extending its pseudopods. Paramecium: A ciliated protist that feeds on bacteria and other small organisms. Euglena: A protist that can photosynthesize like a plant and move with a flagellum.

How do the eye spot and chloroplasts work together to help the euglena survive?

"The eye spot is a photo receptor. It alerts the Euglena to the presence of light. The chloroplast uses light to carry on photosynthesis. While the Euglena is in the presence of light it is making food. The Euglena also can eat food like other Protists if there is no light." quoted by ATP-Man (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080114172048AAK4szq)


What are some examples of common Protists?

Some protists include algae, diatoms, paramecium, rotifers, flagellates, amoeba, and giardia. Other protists include trichomonadida, euglena, trichonympha, ceratium, and dinoflagellates.


What are the characteristics of euglena pisciformis?

It's a strict autotroph, unlike other Euglena species.


What are the differences between the euglena ameba and volvox?

An euglena has a flagellum; a volvox does not. A volvox has a gonidium; an euglena doesn't. An euglena has a stigma; a volvoxdoes not.a volvox has a lot of characteristics an euglena does not, and an euglena has a lot of characteristics a volvox does not. Unfortuneatly, I do not know the rest of the other unique characteristics that a volvox, or an euglena has that are different from each other. You must go to google to find the rest. Or bing, or ask.com.
