Lab Summary
Match the Euglena structure to its function or description.

Nucleus : Location of DNA and cell control.


Flagellum : Long, cellular extension often used for movement.
Eyespot : Light-sensing system in some protists.
Pellicle : Protein structure that supports the cell membrane of some protists.
Contractile vacuole : Organelle found in some protozoa that assists with osmoregulation.
Pyrenoid : Location of starch synthesis.
