I Have In-Depth Notes With Pictures (Including Reproduction) on My Website Under “Class Notes” http://www.wsfcs.k12.nc.us/domain/333
Euglena
Unicellular (Single-Celled) Autotrophic Photosynthesis
(he’s green with chloroplasts)
Can also feed (heterotrophic) Contractile vacuole Pumps
out excess water (osmoregulation) Help maintain homeostasis
Light detection, phototaxis, Flagella for movement Has nucleus Asexual via binary fission
Amoeba Pseudopods (“false foot”) for
movement and feeding via endocytosis
Waste removal via exocytosis Senses prey by chemical
agents given off (chemotaxis) Has a nucleus Contractile vacuole for
osmoregulation homeostasis
Asexual Exact copy of itself (no genetic diversity)
Sexual Exchange of genetic material between two amoeba (genetic diversity)
Paramecium Cilia for
movement Heterotrophic Oral Groove for
feeding Contractile
vacuole removes excess water
Has nucleus Asexual or sexual
