Which part of a euglena is also found in an animal cell?

The flagellum found in a euglena is also found in some animal cells. The flagellum helps with movement by propelling the cell through its environment.


Scientific name for euglena?

The scientific name for euglena is Euglena gracilis. It is a single-celled, photosynthetic protist that can move by either using its flagellum or contracting its cell body.


What is the locomotion of a Euglena?

The Euglena cell uses it's flagellum, which is like a tail that comes out from the back end of the cell, and whips it to move around through the water. Sometimes, the flagellum doesn't whip all at once and in the same movement, causing it to spiral as it moves in the general direction that it wants to.


What is the structure of a euglena?

The Euglena do not have a cell wall. What they have instead is a pellicle. The pellicle is what allows the shape to change.


What are the locomotary organelles in paramecium and euglena?

Paramecium uses cilia for movement, which are short, hair-like structures that beat in a coordinated manner to propel the cell through water. Euglena, on the other hand, uses a whip-like structure called a flagellum for movement. The flagellum acts like a propeller, allowing Euglena to move through water by rotating in a whip-like motion.


Functions of the different parts of euglena?

Hi, I don't know all of the parts to a Euglena but some are Pigment shield, nucleus, nucleolus and contractile vacuole- I'm not sure it the last one is completely right but look it up anyway :)


What are the features on euglena?

The Euglena is a spindle-shaped organism. Each organism has a single anterior flagellum attached to it. A shape-sustaining pellicle covers the body of the euglena. A small gullet enlarges into a reservoir which resembles a human mouth at the anterior end. Although the reservoir looks like a mouth, it is thought that euglenas probably do not ingest food through thus. A small, red, light-sensitive eyespot is located near the reservoir. A large nucleolus is incased inside a small nucleus. It is a single celled organism.The euglena has a contractile vacuole, like most protist, which has the job of maintain organism's water balance by expelling excess water from the cytoplasm into the reservoir.


Is euglena a plant cell or animal cell?

It is neither a plant nor animal actually. It is really in the protista kingdom because it is a protozoa.Domain: EukaryotaKingdom: Protista(unranked): ExcavataPhylum: EuglenophytaClass: EuglenoideaOrder: EuglenalesFamily: EuglenaceaeGenus: EuglenaYour mama


What are some differences between euglena and spirogyra?

I think the answer could be both spirogyre and euglena move by using flagella


Do eukaryotes have flagella?

It is normal for the euglena to have a flagellum. Of course, any creature can suffer a trauma, or a birth defect or illness, or mutation, which can cause it to lose a part of its normal anatomy. I'm sure that there do exist some euglena which are missing the flagellum, much as there are some people who are missing legs.


Does a bone cell have a flagellum?

no


Does euglena have a cell membrane?

Yes, Euglena has a cell membrane. The cell membrane surrounds the cell and helps regulate the movement of molecules in and out of the cell.
