'''"Abstract"''': Euglena is a genus of single-celled flagellate eukaryotes. When feeding as a heterotroph, Euglena takes in nutrients by osmotrophy, and can survive without light on a diet of organic matter, such as beef extract, peptone, acetate, ethanol or carbohydrates. When there is sufficient sunlight for it to feed by phototrophy, it uses chloroplasts containing the pigments chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b to produce sugars by photosynthesis. According to this character of Euglena,I tried to explore the relationship between different light colors and activity degree of Euglena. During the process of experiments, I found there was no teaching aids available for us to create different light conditions in further to make contrast tests by using various color combinations of transparent papers. So I not only paid close attention to the diverse light color experiments of Euglena, but also tried to design and make experimental tools to provide some inspirations and references on the further teaching aids making of the study of Euglena, try to let more people, not only scientists, but also non-researchers could be at home or school to explore the secrets of science and beauty of art. | |||
'''Design Objects''': Boxes which could be changed the proportion of different color areas by pulling or rotating transparent papers inside in order to interact with Euglena(a genus of single-celled flagellate eukaryotes). | |||
