Activity C (continued from previous page)

  1. Observe: Switch to the Protist sample. Protists are unicellular organisms common in ponds On the MICROSCOPE tab, select the 100x radio button and focus the image.




  1. Watch the motion of the protists at 100X and 400X. What structures allow each protist to move?

Amoeba: Pseudopodium Euglena: Flagellum Paramecium: Cilia




  1. In the table below, draw the structures that allow the protists to move on their images on the left and describe the structures in the spaces on the right:







Amoeba

Projections of the cell membrane that extend and contract to move the organism forward, and help the organism trap and ingest food particles




Euglena

A long, thin whip-like cell structure that rotates around, allowing the organism to swim



Paramecium

Short, hair-like vibrating structures that move surrounding liquid, or help the organism move




  1. Which protist is photosynthetic? How do you know? Euglena – Presence of chloroplasts



  1. Compare: On the LANDSCAPE tab, click on the cow to switch to the E. coli sample. On the MICROSCOPE tab, select 2500x, focus the image and turn on Show labels.



  1. Find two structures that help E. coli move and describe them below:

Name: Flagella Description: A long, thin whip-like cell structure that rotates around, allowing the organism to swim

Name: Pilli Description: Short, hair-like structures that may help the organism move, attach to surfaces or aid in reproduction



  1. Do protists (amoeba, Euglena, Paramecium) use similar structures to move?

Explain. Only Euglena and Paramecium. Euglena uses a flagella while Paramecium uses a structure similar to the Pili called Cilia
