Answer 29
29. Amoeba move by means of
cilia/pseudopods/flagella. (Choose one)
Answer 30
30. “Shelled” Amoebas have “houses”
made from silica/calcium carbonate/ or
some silica and others calcium carbonate.
(choose one)
Answer 31
31. True/false. All amoebas are free-living;
none are parasitic. (If false, give a counter
example)
Phylum Ciliphora
All heterotrophs
Arrays of cilia allow
movement and direct
food into oral cavity Hypotrich
Ciliate Conjugation
Most ciliates have two different nuclei
Large macronucleus
Smaller micronucleus
Micronucleus participates in sexual
reproduction (conjugation)
Partners exchange micronuclei
Answer 32
32. What is name for the phylum which
contains ciliates such as Paramecium?
Ciliophora
Answer 33
33. Ciliates have two types of nuclei.
Name them.
Macronuclei and micronuclei
Answer 34
34. What is the name for the process
where ciliates exchange micronuclei?
conjugation
Answer 35
35. Ciliates use cilia for both locomotion
and feeding.
Animal-Like Flagellates
Phylum Mastigophora
Move by means of flagella
All are heterotrophs
Free-living species in freshwater and
marine habitats
Many are internal parasites
