Overview

Protozoa are single-celled, microscopic organisms belonging to the kingdom Protista. They often move using hair-like structures called cilia or whip-like structures called flagella. Protozoa play essential roles in various ecosystems as both predators and decomposers.

Didinium

Didinium, a unicellular ciliate protozoan, is an inhabitant of aquatic habitats. Its propulsion mechanisms involve cilia, enabling effective predation, primarily targeting paramecia. This exemplifies the interplay of predator-prey dynamics within micro-ecosystems.
