Unicellular Organisms

1. organization Kingdom = Protista Phylum = Euglenophyta 2. movement flagellum – a long whip-like structure that acts like a little motor can move in an inchworm type fashion

3. feeding heterotrophic = must consume food autotrophic = can make its own food chloroplasts used for photosynthesis eye spot to detect light

4. Where do euglena live? quiet ponds or puddles 5. reproduction reproduce asexually by splitting in two

1. organization Kingdom = Protista freshwater alga likes to form colonies 2. movement bi-flagellum – whip-like structure divided into two that acts like a little motor

3. feeding Like euglena, they can consume food, or make their food through photosynthesis 4. Where do volvox live? deeper ponds, lagoons, and ditches – places that receive rainwater

5. reproduction asexually usually done in colonies sexually also while in colonies cells are hermaphroditic, but cannot fertilize themselves
