Protists Can Be Informally Labeled According to Their Type of Motility

Question 1

the 3 types of protist motility

Answer 1

• flagellates
• ciliates
• amoebae

Question 2

flagellates

Answer 2

protists that produce one or more eukaryotic flagella

Question 3

ciliates

Answer 3

protists that use many tiny, hairlike surface extensions known as cilia, to move

Question 4

cilia

Answer 4

Structurally similar to eukaryotic flagella but are shorter and more abundant on cells

Question 5

amoebae

Answer 5

protist that can move by extending cytoplasm into robes, known as pseudopodia

Question 6

pseudopodia

Answer 6

once the pseudopodia move towards a food source or other stimulus the rest of the cytoplasm flows after them
- changes the shape of the entire organism as it moves along
