Objective 1.1 Compare the structures and life functions of single-celled organisms that carry out all of the basic functions of life including: Euglena Amoeba Paramecium Volvox

These notes will be page 8 in your science notebook. Essential Question: What are the characteristics of the following single-celled organisms? Euglena Amoeba Paramecium Volvox These notes will be page 8 in your science notebook.

Comparisons of Single-celled Organisms

Euglena Move by flagellum Known for a unique feature—eye spot Some contain chlorophyll Some are common in fresh water

Amoeba Move by cytoplasmic streaming Surrounds food and engulfs it using pseudopods

Paramecium Most complex and specialized of the protists Moves by cilia (hairlike projections)

Volvox A colony of ciliates Some contain chlorophyll
