Protozoa

Question Answer Article
What are the four different ways protozoa can move?
  • Cilia
  • Flagellum
  • Pseduopodia
  • Gliding
Link to Answer Article
How do protozoa reproduce?
  • By binary fission
  • By schizogony
  • By sporogony
  • By gametogeny
Link to Answer Article
Briefly summarise the life cycle of protozoa
  • The infectious sporozoite are released from the oocyst invading epithelial tissue
  • The nucleus of the sporozoites divides forming a schizont which contains merozoites (schizogony)
  • Schizont ruptures releasing merozoites which form micro and macrogamonts in the epithelial tissue (gametogeny)
  • Microgamonts penetrate the macrogamont forming the zygote
  • The zygote forms the oocyst which is passed in the faeces
  • Sporulation occurs which makes the oocyst infectious
