When a student adds a few drops of diluted picric acid to a paramecium slide, he observes that the paramecium releases some transparent spine-like projections to protect its body from the acid. What is the significance of these projections? The projections are trichocysts, released for the self-defense of the paramecium. The projections are pseudopodia, released for the locomotion of the paramecium. The projections are cilia, released for the locomotion of the paramecium.
