One important difference is their level of complexity. Chlamydomonas is a single-celled algae, while Volvox is a multicellular organism composed of many cells. This difference in complexity can impact their size, behavior, and reproduction.
An example of colonial protists is Volvox, which forms spherical colonies of individual cells that work together to swim and photosynthesize. These colonies can consist of hundreds of individual cells, each with a specific role in the organism's functioning.
500-50,000 individual cells
Green Algae is unicellular because it only grows on non-vascular plants which are plants with no tubes to carry nu trains and oxygen.
Amoebas are protists that use pseudopods to surround and engulf their food through a process called phagocytosis. The pseudopods extend to capture the food particle and then enclose it within a food vacuole for digestion.
A jellyfish is an organism that exists as a group of cells. It has specialized cells that work together to perform specific functions such as swimming, eating, and reproducing. Each cell in the jellyfish plays a specific role in maintaining the overall structure and function of the organism.
