Question

  1. what locomotor structures might you see if you were observing a motile protozoan under an electron microscope (change all question marks to checkmarks for correct answers or empty boxes for incorrect answers.) pseudopods cilia pil fimbriae flagella 4. what means of locomotion is used by trypanosoma? cilia pseudopods pil fimbriae flagella 5. which protozoan listed here also uses that same means of locomotion? toxoplasma plasmodium entamoeba giardia undulating membrane, and it can also

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. Pseudopods, cilia, pili, fimbriae, and flagella are all possible locomotor structures in motile protozoa. Pseudopods are temporary extensions of the cell body for movement. Cilia are hair - like structures that beat in coordinated patterns. Pili can be involved in movement in some cases. Fimbriae may assist in attachment and movement in certain protozoa. Flagella are long, whip - like structures for propulsion.
  2. Trypanosoma uses flagella for locomotion. Flagella are the main means of movement for this protozoan, providing the necessary thrust for it to move through its environment.
  3. Giardia also uses flagella for locomotion. It has multiple flagella that help it move in its habitat, similar to Trypanosoma.

Answer:

  1. Pseudopods, Cilia, Pili, Fimbriae, Flagella
  2. Flagella
  3. Giardia
