    Paramecium caudatum is 170–330 micrometres long (usually 200–300 micrometres). [6] The cell body is spindle-shaped, rounded at the front, tapering at the posterior to a blunt point. Early microscopists likened its shape to that of a slipper, and commonly referred to it as the "slipper animalcule."

    In some groups, partners are different in size and shape. This is referred to as "anisogamontic" conjugation. In sessile peritrichs, for instance, one sexual partner (the microconjugant) is small and mobile, while the other (macroconjugant) is large and sessile.

    Paramecium bursaria click to see cilia: Foraminiferans, and some marine amoebae, ciliates and flagellates. Amoebas (amoeboids) Pseudopods (Greek for false feet) are lobe-like appendages which amoebas use to anchor to a solid surface and pull themselves forward. They can change their shape by extending and retracting these pseudopods. [14] Amoeba
