How does euglena volvox paramium and amoeba move?

Euglena moves using a whip-like structure called a flagellum, which propels it through water in a spinning motion.

Paramecium utilizes cilia, tiny hair-like projections covering its surface, to create water currents for movement and feeding. Amoeba moves through a process called amoeboid movement, extending its cytoplasm to form pseudopodia that pull the rest of the cell forward.
