Chapter 11, Problem 8RQ
Summary Introduction
To explain: The different ways that unicellular eukaryotes feed.
Introduction: The unicellular eukaryotes are single-celled organisms with mitochondria, nucleus, and other organelles. The unicellular eukaryotes are made up of only one cell that carries out all the functions required by the organism. Some examples of unicellular eukaryotes are euglena, diatoms, and dinoflagellate.

- Contrast and give an example of autotrophic and heterotrophic unicellular eukaryotesarrow_forwardIn the early 1930s, G. F. Gause carried out a series of experiments using two species of ciliated protists (Paramecium), which are single-celled eukaryotic protozoans. The protists were cultured together and separately, with the bacteria being the single food source. The results are shown in the figure below. (a) Based on figure, identify and explain the interaction that is taking place between P. caudatum and P. aurelia. (b) Clam shrimp, a natural predator to P. caudatum, is introduced to the culture containing both P. caudatum and P. aurelia after 24 days. Predict the impact that the clam shrimp will have on the culture and the populations.
