4.
5. reproduces by
6. absorbs nutrients and
1. _________________ Locomotion
2. _________________cell membrane(absorption of nutrients and diffusion of
wastes)
3. _________________made up of endoplasm and ectoplasm
4. _________________ photoreception
5. _________________ regulate water
6. _________________ photosynthesis

Paramecium
1. moves by
2. found in
3. reproduces by
Digestion
1. Cilia help capture food and direct food into oral groove where mouth pore
(cytostome) is located
2. Food enters the cytostome and moves down the cytopharynx
3.
food vacuole is formed
4. Food is broken down by enzymes in lysosomes
5. Wastes are expelled through anal pore
Cell Parts
1. _____________: Locomotion
2. _____________: Controls metabolic processes
3. _____________: stores genetic information participate in conjugation
4. _____________: location of cytostome
5. _____________: food storage and digestion
6. _____________: water regulation
7. _____________: mouth pore
8. _____________: gullet where food is transported
9. _____________: Cell Membrane
Malaria: Plasmodium
1. Lives inside mosquitoes
2. Sexual reproduction occurs in mosquitoes to produce spores
3. Mosquitoes injects spores in humans
4. Spores transport to liver where asexual reproduction occurs
5. The offspring travel to red blood cells causing the cells to rupture and
release more spores to infect more red blood cells
