Living Processes in Unicellular Organisms (2)

Biology

Not quite remember

I easily remember

Unicellular Organisms (1)

Are made up of only one cell. However, this cell is a complete unit of life like multicellular organisms

Unicellular Organisms (2)

This cell is a complete unit of life like multicellular organisms

Unicellular Organisms (3)

Unicellular organisms carry out all life processes: respiration, movement, nutrition, responding to stimulus, reproduction, growth and excretion

Example of the simplest form of unicellular organisms

Protozoans

Example of protozoa (1)

Amoeba sp.

Example of protozoa (2)

Paramecium sp.

The movement of Amoeba sp. (1)

Amoeba sp. constantly changes its shape when it encounters obstacles

The movement of Amoeba sp. (2)

Amoeba sp. moves by extending out its pseudopodium (false feet), this is followed by the flow of cytoplasm into the extended pseudopodium

The movement of Paramecium sp.

Paramecium sp. moves using rhythmic cilia beats

Responding of Amoeba sp. and Paramecium sp. to stimuli

Amoeba sp. and Paramecium sp. respond to stimuli such as chemicals, touch or bright light by moving away from the stimuli
