Which statement best compares pseudopods in sarcodina and flagella in dinoflagellates?
Answers
Pseudopodia are projections of the cell of the organism that dynamically change in shape and size while flagella is an appendage structure that rotates and flips to move the organisms. Pseudopodia are temporary while the flagella is a permanent structure. Organisms that bear pseudopodia are majorly protozoans while those that are mainly bacteria. The process by which pseudopodia engulf food is called endocytosis.
Answer:
Explanation:
There is no statement given in the question, so I am writing on the difference between the two.
Pseudopods are whip-like structures, while flagella are flat structures . Sarcodinia move about using pseudopods which make cytoplasmic movement.
A pseudopod or pseudopodium is an arm like projection from the cell membrane of a eukaryotic cell. It is filled with cytoplasm. Pseudopodia consists of actin filaments and microtubules and intermediate filament.
These are often used for motility and ingestion. Dinoflagellate as the name indicates have two flagella which are dissimilar and have the features of both plant and animal cell.
