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.
What else can I help you with?
What are features of euglena that are the same as animals and plant cells?
Euglena, like animal cells, can move using a flagellum and exhibit some characteristics of motility. Like plant cells, they contain chloroplasts and can perform photosynthesis to produce energy.
Does euglena have chloroplast?
euglena does indeed have chrlorplasts.
Is the chloroplast found in the euglena?
Euglena is an algae.Chloroplasts are present in them.
Why is the euglena a producer?
the euglena is a producer mostly because its green.
What are the different types of euglena?
There are two main types of Euglena: autotrophic Euglena that can photosynthesize and heterotrophic Euglena that must ingest food particles to survive. Autotrophic Euglena have chloroplasts and can produce their own food through photosynthesis, while heterotrophic Euglena do not have chloroplasts and rely on absorbing nutrients from their environment.
What animal is halfway an animal and plant?
The one celled "Euglena"Currently, over 1,000 species of Euglena have been described. There are many to be discovered. Some Euglena are considered to have both plant and animal features.
What is the scientific name for euglena?
Euglena gracilis
What unicellular organism has plant and animal characters?
Euglena A unicellular organism, also known as a single-celled organism, is an organism that consists of only one cell. Euglena are single-celled organisms which have the features of both a plant and an animal. Euglena is a very unusual organism, as it photosynthesizes yet it can also move about. Species of Euglena are found in fresh and salt waters. Euglena contains 59 nutrients, and it provides nearly all the nutrients needed to sustain human life.
What is the common name of euglena gracilis?
The common name of Euglena gracilis is "euglena."

Is a euglena a good bacteria?
Euglena are not bacteria.
Is the chloroplast found in the euglena?

Species and genus name of euglena?
Euglena is actually the genus name as well as the common name for this organism. Finding the exact species is difficult, because the genus Euglena has dozens of species in it.See the Related Links for more information about the genus Euglena as well as a list of the species in this genus.
Do euglena reproduce sexually?
Euglena reproudces asexually not sexually
Why do euglena cells move?
Euglena have flagella that provides them with locomotion.
Why is the euglena a producer?
the euglena is a producer mostly because its green.
