Euglena gracilis is a well-studied unicellular euglenid flagellate found in freshwater environments worldwide. It is mixotrophic, capable of both photosynthesis in light and heterotrophic feeding in darkness, making it highly adaptable to varying light conditions. It is one of the most commonly used model organisms in cell biology and biotechnology research.
