Euglena splendens cells are elongated and spindle-shaped, enclosed in a flexible pellicle that enables shape changes. At the anterior end, a single whip-like flagellum emerges from a pocket, facilitating movement through a characteristic wave-like motion. Near the flagellum’s base, an eyespot aids light detection for orientation towards light sources crucial for photosynthesis. Chloroplasts within the cell contain chlorophyll and pigments, imparting a greenish color, and serve in photosynthesis. Additionally, Euglena splendens stores paramylon, a carbohydrate reserve utilized as an energy source during darkness or nutrient scarcity, ensuring metabolic sustainability and growth under adverse conditions.
