Chapter 3, Problem 6CT
Summary Introduction
To answer:
The membranous organelles possessed by the eukaryotic Ostreococcus tauris.
Introduction:
There are different kinds of cells that range from single cell to multi-cellular organisms. Some cells are independent and have the ability to synthesize their own food. Some cells are intracellular

Paramecia live mostly in freshwater and move with the use of structures called cilia. They utilize contractile vacuoles to expel water that enters the cell by osmosis. Euglena are unicellular organisms that use flagella for movement and chloroplasts for photosynthesis. They are found in freshwater and saltwater. Scientists have determined that Paramecia and Euglena are eukaryotes and not prokaryotes because they have
What are the differences between a free living celled organism such as paramecium and a single human cell such as a cilliates cell of the respiratory tract?
An electron photomicrograph of a newly discovered cell shows long projections with a basal body in the cell wall. What kind of projections are these? How might this cell behave in its environment because of the presence of this structure?
