Amoeba: It is a unicellular protozoan that lacks a definite shape. Live in both fresh water and marine habitats. Some are found in soil, and many have adapted to parasitic life on the body of marine animals or internal organs of both aquatic and terrestrial animals. Amoeba reproduces asexually by binary and multiple fissions. They eat algae, bacteria, other protozoan, and tiny particles of dead plant or animal matter.
Bacillus: They are rod shaped, gram positive bacteria found in soil and water. The largest are 2m across and 7m long. Most are aerobic but some under certain conditions can be facultative anaerobes. Each bacterium creates only one spore, which is resistant to heat, cold, radiation, desiccation, and disinfectants. Coprinus: It is a small genus of mushrooms that decomposes organic matter in nature. They belong to the kingdom fungi. Coprinus can grow alone or in clusters, lines, or fairy rings on lawns, wood chips, or hard-packed ground. The common fungus is coprinus comatus.
Euglena is a genus of unicellular protists, which belong to the class of Euglenoidea in the phylum of Euglenozoa. Over 1000 species have been identified. They are often found commonly residing in salt and fresh waters. They are asexual and reproduce through cell division. Euglenas typically have an oval shaped, bright green body, with a flagellum attached to the round anterior end for movement while the posterior end is narrower. Euglenas lack a cell wall but instead have a pellicle, which maintains its shape. The central area of the cell contains the nucleus, which contains the DNA, and carries out vital cell activities. Moreover, some Euglena species are unique single-celled microorganisms because they have mixed characteristics similar to both plants and animals. Such as plants, they are able to prepare and consume food
