Biology:Streblomastix
From HandWiki
A symbiotic eukaryote that lives in the hindgut of termites, Streblomastix is a protist associated with a community of ectosymbiotic bacteria.[1][2]
Motility
Streblomastix moves by beating its anterior flagella.
Morphology
These protists measure around 100 micrometers in length. They completely lack mitochondria.[3]
