|
Describe a member of Phylum Sarcodina
|
manuvers around using a pseudopod, looks a bit like a splatter of paint or oil. Has a distinct, membrane bound nucleus.
|
|
Describe a member of Phylum Mastigophora
|
manuvers around by way of a flagella, elliptical in shape, various organelles easily visible in the cell.
