In what ways are euglena different then paramecium and amoeba?

The most obvious difference between an amoeba and a paramecium or euglena is that the amoeba has no overall shape, and the entire cell changes its shape as the amoeba moves. The paramecium and the euglena both have definite shapes which they do not alter. The amoeba can engulf food particles at any point on its own cell membrane, but the paramedium has an oral groove which is where it ingests food particles. And the euglena also has a chloroplast, unlike the other two (or any other protozoan).


What is the difference between paramecium and euglena?

The parameceum can reproduce asexually and sexuallly while the other can only do it asexually. they have diifferent structures and the euglena has a flagellum while the paramecium has cilia and they eat differently. The paremecium uses the cilia to get a water current going and the food gets sucked in, and the euglena uses photosynethesis by using its stigma to indicate areas of light and if not then it will just get food like the other.
