Q

A ciliate has a large _____ for day-to-day activity of the cell and one or more _____ for sexual reproduction.

A

macronuclei, micronuclei

31
Q

These are heterotrophic, animal-like protists (ciliates, flagellates).

32
Q

These are photsynthetic, plant-like protists (red and green algae)

33
Q

Many protists form these to survive the bad times in an environment to leave the host and be exposed to the outer environment.

34
Q

This supergroup includes Amoebozoans, opisthokonts (animals and fungi), plasmodial and cellular slime molds.

35
Q

These unikonts have a single posterior flagellum in their motile cells.

A

Opisthokonts

36
Q

These unikonts use large lobe-shaped pseudopodia for movement.

A

Amoebazoans

37
Q

These mycetozoa undergo mitosis but not cytokinesis, thus growing on each other.

A

Plasmodial slime molds

38
Q

Name and super group for red algae

A

Rhodophyta (Archaeplastida)

39
Q

Name and super group for green algae.

A

Chlorophyta (Archaeplastida)

40
Q

This super group includes: dinoflagellates (outer cellulose plates), apicomplexans (malaria), ciliates, diatoms (silicon dioxide walls), golden algae (chrysophyta), brown algae (kelps), water molds, and rhizaria.

49
Q

What are unicellular eukaryotes that are the most diverse and among the most elaborate eukaryotes?

50
Q

What’s the advantage of conjugation in ciliates?

A

It increases genetic variability.

51
Q

Haploid gametes fuse -> diploid zygote -> zygote mitosis to produce multicellular adult. ONLY life cycle stage that is haploid is the single celled gamete.

A

Gametic life cycle

52
Q

Haploid gametes fuse -> diploid zygote -> zygote meiosis creating haploid spores -> spores undergo mitosis to develop haploid multicellular adult organism -> some of these haploid cells till later develop into gametes by mitosis. ONLY diploid cell is the zygote itself.
