Answer:

Paramecium are heterotrophs, meaning they must consume food for their energy. The area of the paramecium that appears pinched inward is called the oral groove, which runs about half the length of its body. Cilia sweep food into this area and into the gullet, where food vacuoles are formed.

The answer to this is Paramecium. The reason why it is this is because they are heterotroph’s and they must consume their own food for energy.
