The indentation on one side of a ciliate is known as the "oral groove." This structure plays a crucial role in feeding, as it helps direct food particles into the cell's mouth, or cytostome. The oral groove is lined with cilia that facilitate the movement of food toward the cytostome, allowing ciliates to efficiently capture and ingest their prey. This adaptation is essential for their survival in aquatic environments.

What do you mean by indentation of a paragraph?

First let us discuss in general what indention means. When one is writing text on to a computer or onto a piece of paper, one normally starts on the left hand side of the page and writes each line so that it begins set in the same amount from the edge of the page. This gap is called a 'margin'. A paragraph indentation will start a new paragraph with the margin for that paragraph shifted to the right of the line of the page margin. The indentation can be applied to all the lines of that paragraph (as I have done in this example) or just the first line. The above is an example of indentation of a paragraph.
