HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN PARAMECIUM ARE DEAD AND HOW OFTEN DO THEY MOVE (QUOTE YOUR SOURCE) desperate for answer!!

Answer 1

Found this in an interesting article: 'How Paramecium cells die under a cover glass?'

"The initiation of the process was defined by the cessation of swimming, and the termination by cell rupture."

If paramecium are dead, then they don't intentionally move that often.

PS- If this doesn't help, try a new question in the Science & Mathematics > Biology category.  Hope this helps!
