BIO 044 - Module 6 Flashcards
Protoplasmic level
Mostly free living
Symbiotic to plants
Based on nutrition (plant-like and animal-like)
Protozoans/Protists
Can synthesize their own food
Autotrophs
Needs other organisms
Heterotrophs
Feed on particulate (solid food) acquired through phagocytosis
Phagotrophs/Holozoic Feeders
Ingest soluble (liquid food) through osmosis
Osmostrophs/Saprozoic Feeders
False feet
Pseudopodia
Similar morphologically
Cilia and flagella
Different Modes of Nutrition
-Autotrophs
-Heterotrophs
Can synthesize their own food
Autotrophs
From other organisms through ingesting food in a soluble or particulate form
Heterotrophs
Are heterotrophs that feed on particulate (solid) food that is acquired through phagocytosis
Phagotrophs/Holozoic feeders
Heterotrophs that ingest soluble (liquid) food through osmosis
Osmotrophs/Saprozoic feeders
Different Modes of Locomotion
-Cilia and Flagella
-Pseudopodia
Performed through “beatings”
Cilia and Flagella
Chief means of locomotion in amoebas
Pseudopodia
Primitive mouth
Cytosome
