Question
Chapter 27, Problem 13TYK
Summary Introduction
To review:
The experiment demonstrating whether the protist Euglena shows their movement toward the light. The phototropic movement requires the appropriate light intensity and the wavelength range is to be discussed here.
Introduction:
The euglena comes under protists and has the characteristics of both, male and female. They live in a marine habitat and most of them have chloroplast, which gives them photosynthetic ability. The process of movement toward light via flagellar motion used by Euglena is known as phototaxis.

Answer what is the cell shape, what type of plastid is present, and what are the pigments present in Cucurbita maxima only (in detail)
Some protists are colony forming. Hypothesize why this may be an advantage or disadvantage.
Amoebae extend pseudopodium which is a temporary actin-based protrusion of their body membrane to probe and crawl. Elaborate the directed movement of Amoebae response to extracellular chemical stimulants. Cite a specific chemical stimulant to elucidate your idea.
