Protists in Pondwater Diversity of Protists
Paramecium
Paramecium Cilia Oral Groove Contractile Vacuole Paramecium eating Used for locomotion Oral Groove Contractile Vacuole Super important! We’ll talk about DIFFUSION very soon Paramecium eating
Amoeba
Amoeba Locomotion Feeding amoeba moving amoeba feeding
Why? Why do we need to know about these two protists? We will be learning about DIFFUSION through the cell membrane… We will learn that different organisms have evolved to be better suited to their environment… Pond water is freshwater, not salt! REMEMBER THAT!
