Vorticella is a genus of ciliates belonging to the phylum Ciliophora. They are characterized by having a bell-shaped or trumpet-shaped body with a distinct stalk for attachment. Vorticella are typically found in freshwater environments and are considered to be sessile, filter-feeding organisms.
Phylum Aschelminthes
A pig belongs to the phylum Chordata.
Hamsters belong to the phylum Chordata.
Mosses belong to the phylum Bryophyta.
Ciliophora
Vorticella's scientific name is Vorticella campanula.
Vorticella is a type of zooplankton. It is a group of ciliated protozoans that belong to the phylum Ciliophora. Phytoplankton, on the other hand, are microscopic algae that harness sunlight to produce energy through photosynthesis.
Phylum Ciliophora is a large and diverse group which includes complex protozoans, such as paramecium, Stentor, spirostomum and vorticella. Their locomotion is by cilia, and all forms are multinucleate.

Vorticella are unicellular protists.
Vorticella move by contracting and expanding their stalk, allowing them to extend and contract their bodies in a spiral motion. This movement helps them to anchor onto surfaces and capture food particles in the water.
One structural difference between Stentor and vorticella is that Stentor is a protozoa. Vorticella is a sessile organism, meaning that it is immobile.
what structtures does the vorticella create its whirlpool to get food
Vorticella, is the scientific genus name for at least 16 species of protozoa.
No they do not
The Vorticella's diet is mainly of bacteria. It could eat other things, but it is mainly bacteria.
