One organism found in a termite’s gut is Mixotrichia paradoxa. This strange creature looks like a single-celled swimming ciliate under low magnification. However, the electron microscope reveals that it contains spherical bacteria rather than mitochondria and has on its surface, rather than cilia, hundreads and thousands of spirilla and bacilla bacteria. You are the scientists who first observed this organism. How would you describe this organism- single-celled? Aggregate? Colony? Multicellular? Can the structure of this organism give you any insight into the evolution of eukaryotic cells?
