Brief and Straightforward Guide: What is Paramecium? ... When a paramecium encounters food, it swivels to move the food into its gullet. The gullet is a small opening, like a mouth. It's lined with other cilia to help "swallow" the bits of organic or decaying matter it eats, like other unicellular organisms or bacteria.

Paramecium are heterotrophs, meaning they must consume food for their energy. Food enters the paramecium through the mouth pore (color orange) and goes to the gullet (color dark blue). At the end of the gullet, food vacuoles are formed.

As it moves through the water it rotates on its axis and small particles of debris and food are collected and swept into the gullet. If Paramecium comes across an obstacle, it stops, reverses the beating of the cilia, swims backwards, turns through an angle and moves forward again on a slightly different course.

The paramecium eats tiny algae, plants, etc. The cilia propels the food into a tiny mouth opening of the paramecium. The food is then shoved down a little tube called a gullet that leads to the protoplasm or stuffing of the cell.
