1. Single Celled Organisms Review
Mrs. Wharton’s Science Class

2. Amoebas Unicellular, Eukaryotic, heterotrophic Moves-using Psuedopods
Reproduces- Binary fission
Eats-engulfing

3. Euglena Unicellular, eukaryotic, both Heterotrophic and autotrophic
Moves- Flagella
Reproduces- fission (cell splits)
Eats- eyespot senses light to gather for photosynthesis

4. Paramecium Unicellular, eukaryotic, heterotrophic Moves- cilia
Reproduces-sexually and asexually
Eats food from environment- through oral grove, food vacuole, and anal pore.

5. Volvox Unicellular, eukaryotic, autotrophic Moves- flagella
Reproduces- both sexually and asexually
Eats- by using the eye spot to sense light so photosynthesis can occur.

6. Organelles
Nucleus- Control center “brain” of the cell, contains genetic material (DNA)
Cytoplasm- the jelly like substance that surrounds the organelles within the cell
Contractile Vacuole- Gets rid of water/ wastes within the cell
Food Vacuole- surrounds and digests food within the cell
Chloroplasts- necessary organelle for photosynthesis
Eyespot- senses light
Cell membrane- controls what comes into and out of the cell.
