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
Chrysophyta
Phylum of Protista Diatoms Unicellular,colonial Autotrophic Shells made of SiO2
Myxomycota
Phylum of Protista Slime molds No chiton or hypae Phagocytosis No cell walls Multinucleated
Chemotaxis
Movement in response to chemicals
