Protista
Domain Eukarya
- 200k - 500k species
- Many unicellular
- In every habitat
- All eukaryotes that aren’t fungi, plants or animals
Taxas
Unicellular
Colonial- groups of cells, globular
Filamentous- chains of cells
Multi cellular
Kinetoplastid
Flagella
Undulating membrane
Cause African sleeping disease and Chayese disease
Alveolata
Types:
Dinoflagellates
Apicomplexans
Dinoflagellate
Type of alveolata-Protista-Eukarya 2 flagella- belt and tail Shell bioluminescence Cause red tide Carry nerve toxins
Apicomplexan
Apicomplexan-Alevolata-Protista
Heterotrophic parasites
Non motile
Cause malaria
Ciliates
Ciliate-Protista-Eukarya 1000s of types Cilia move and feed the cell Heterotrophic Paramecium moves the cell Vorticella moves water through the cell
Stramenopila
Stramenopila-Protista-Eukarya
Phylum phaeophyta
Contains brown algae and foccus
Brown algae
Phaeophyta- Stramenopila-Protista-Eukarya
Multicellular
Called kelp in cool areas, sargassum in warm waters
Air bladder to stay afloat
Photosynthetic
Foccus
Phaeophyta-Steamenopila-Protista-Eukarya
Also called rockweed
Lives in rough intertidal areas
Diplotonic life cycle
Rhodophyta
Clade of Protista Red algae Warm marine environments Deeper than brown-absorbs higher energy photons Produces ager
Rhizopoda
Clade of Protista Root foot Amoebas Pseudo pods-false feet Heterotrophic
