what is the role of cilia and flagella in paramoecium and euglena?
Answers
Answer:
Euglena and Paramecium are two types of unicellular organisms. Both Euglena and Paramecium are aquatic organisms that belong to the kingdom Protista. The difference between the two lies in body structure, locomotion, and feeding modes. The main difference between Euglena and Paramecium is that Euglena can be either animal-like or plant-like organisms whereas Paramecium is an animal-like organism. Only Euglena consists of chloroplasts. Paramecium does not contain its own chloroplasts. But, it swallows green algae. Therefore, Euglena is either heterotrophic or autotrophic whereas Paramecium is autotrophic. Euglena uses flagella for locomotion while Paramecium uses cilia. Both sexual and asexual reproduction occur in Paramecium. But asexual reproduction is the only reproduction method of Euglena.
