1. Unicellular Organisms

2. Kingdom = Protista Phylum = Euglenophyta have both plant and animal characteristics

3. flagellum – a long whip-like structure that acts like a little motor can move in an inchworm type fashion

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

5. quiet ponds or puddles can live in fresh or brackish water

6. reproduce asexually by splitting in two

7. Kingdom = Protista freshwater algae likes to form colonies

8. bi-flagellum – whip-like structure divided into two that acts like a little motor

9. Like euglena, they can consume food, or make their food through photosynthesis they are mixotrophs

10. deeper ponds, lagoons, and ditches – places that receive rainwater

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