Question

Is it 100X for Paramecium? Is it 400X for Euglena? I don't know how to solve this problem. I don't know what should I draw the picture of the Paramecium and Euglena. Can you explain to me?

Calculate the diameter of the field of view for each total magnification on your microscope in millimeters
(mm) and then convert this value to micrometers (um):
Scanning (40X):
1.8 mm x 100X/40x = t 5 mm = 4.500um
Low power (100X):
FOV diameter 1.8 mm =
1.800 um
High power (400X):
1.8 mm x 100X/400X =
O,45 mm =450 um
Oil immersion (1000X):
1.8 mm x 100x/1000X = O. 18 mm =
180 um

Step 1

Euglena is a genus of single cell flagellate eukaryotes. It is the best known and most widely studied member of the class Euglenoidea. The parts of a euglena are:

  • Flagellum
  • Nucleus
  • Contractile vacuole
  • Stigma


Paramecium is a unicellular organism with a shape resembling the sole of a shoe. It ranges from 50 to 300um in size which varies from species to species. The parts of paramecium are:

  • Cilia
  • Contractile vacuole
  • Food vacuole
  • Macro nucleus
  • Micro nucleus
  • Oral groove
  • Cytoplasm
