Fusing Protist - 3 Pseudopods

Overview
Not many protists are found on Vispericulum. The few species that do exist dominate their microscopic world. Fusing protists with 3 pseudopods are a rare occurrence that happens when a certain mutation occurs. They only mitosis 10%, like other protists. They are common prey for many creatures.

Daily Life
Fusing protists with pseudopods occur when a genetic mutation with amoeba fusing protists happens. This makes them need to eat other amoebas instead of minerals. They are picky and only eat other fusing protists like them. If they grow due to mineral consumption, they will split if needed.

Adaptations

 * The pseudopods occur due to an excess of cytoplasm. This happens because in their amoeba form they only consume the nucleus and organelles of other cells, leaving them extra cytoplasm to use.
 * They are relatively picky, only consuming certain minerals and protists of the same species.
 * After consuming enough protists, they will grow stalks and be classified as a different species, even though they are made of the same materials as the original protist. They appear quite different from each other, but have their similarities.
