Euglena
The "euglena" has chlorplast. All euglena make their own food by a prosses called "photosynthesis". Euglena also get food from their enviorment. They usually live in quite puddles or in ponds. The euglena moves by a flagellum. The flagellum is a long whip-like structure. It acts like a little motor. Also the euglena have a red eye-spot. It uses the eye-spot to locate light.
Paramecium
The "Paramecium" feeds on microorganisms such as bacteria, algae, and yeast. And it uses cilia to sweep the food alonginto the cell mouth after it falls into the oral groove. The way the paramecium moves is by cilia. Cilia is a tiny hair-like projections. The paramecium reproduces by asexual reproduction. Even though it is capable of both sexual and asexual the asexual is most common. Also called Binairy fission. The way the paramecium responds is by avoidance behavior and tricocyst.
Ameoba
The ameoba get their food by surrounding its food with it pseudpods. Ameobas mostly eat bactriea, plant cells, and microcopic protozoa. The way the ameobas move is by changing the shape of their body and froming pseudpods. Pseudods means "false food". The way it reproduces is by binary fission. The ameobas respond by turning into cyst when coditions are bad
Volvox
The volvoxs are one -celled algae that all live together in a thing calleed colonies. The colony is a hollow ball filled with 500 to 20,000 indivdual cells. The way the volvox moves is by two flaglla. An dthe ways it reproduces is by dauhter colonies. Ant finnally the way it responds is by the colonies.
