Question

Why is euglena called plant animal?

Answer 1

Euglena is a protist that can both eat food and can photosynthesize. When acting as a heterotroph, the Euglena surrounds a particle of food and consumes it by phagocytosis. When acting as an autotroph, the Euglena utilizes chloroplasts to produce sugars by photosynthesis thats why it is said to be a plant animal.
