Question

  1. how do unicellular organisms like euglena move and obtain food?* 1 point resource: https://www.ck12.org/c/biology/protists/

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Euglena are unicellular organisms. They move using a flagellum, a long whip - like structure. For food, they are mixotrophs. In the presence of light, they can photosynthesize (autotrophic nutrition) as they have chloroplasts. In the absence of light, they can absorb organic compounds from their environment (heterotrophic nutrition).

Answer:

Euglena move using a flagellum and obtain food through both autotrophic (photosynthesis in light) and heterotrophic (absorbing organic compounds in the dark) means.
