How does a paramecia eat?

Answer 1

Paramecia are smaller than Amoebas. They move with the help of microscopic hair-like structures called cilia, which act like oars to push them through the water. They swim by rotating slowly and changing directions often. If the Parameciumcomes upon an obstacle, it stops, swims backwards, and then angles itself forward on a slightly different course. Cilia help the Paramecium move as well as feed. When the Parameciafeed, it does so by drawing its food into a funnel-shaped opening called the oral groove that is lined with cilia. The oral groove is like a mouth, taking food in with the help of cilia, which direct and move the food inward.

Answer 2

A paramecium eats by using tiny hair-like structures called cilia to sweep food particles, such as bacteria and algae, towards its oral groove. Once the food is captured in the oral groove, the paramecium forms a food vacuole around the food particle. Digestive enzymes are released into the food vacuole to break down the food for absorption.

Answer 3

yes it can but to know how you will have to look it up i mean that is what i am doing know but i knew that a paramecium eats off the top of my head

Answer 4

It pushes its food inside its mouth by beating its cilia forward and backward.

Answer 5

Cilia - tiny hairs surrounding the paramecium's body.
