Expert Solution
Step 1: Paramecium

Paramecium is a unicellular, eukaryote protozoan, which lives in the fresh water. It is a slipper shaped animalcule which belongs to the class ciliate. 

It has a anterior and a posterior end with the following parts - the body lined by pellicle, lined by numerous cilia and the inside of the cell consisting of ecto and endoplasm. In the endoplasm is the micro and macro nucleus. 

The cilia are most responsible for the movement and also help in catching the prey for the needs of food.
