Question 3

a symbiotic relationship where 1 organism benefits at the expense of the other is a ____________ relationship

Answer 3

parasitic
ex: a tick living on a another organism

Question 4

Answer 5

mutualistic
ex: sea anemone & a clown fish living in tandem

Question 6

2 types of protists are:

Answer 6

1. protophyta (exhibit plant like characteristics)
2. protozoa (exhibit animal like characteristics)
   (note - some organisms exhibit forms such as euglena)

Question 7

what are the ways in which protists get nutrition

Answer 7

1. autotrophic - make their own food
2. heterotrophic - eating other plants or animals
3. saprozoic - nutrients acquired through the plasma membrane

Question 8

Answer 8

organism feeds on animal

Question 9

holophytic

Answer 9

organism feeds on plants

Question 10

phagocytosis

Answer 10

cellular eating

Question 11

define locomotion

Answer 11

the movement of an organism from one place to another

Question 12

3 types of locomotion in protists

Answer 12

1. pseudopodia
2. flagella
3. cilia

Question 13

how do protists reproduce

Answer 13

through both asexual and sexual reproduction, and they’re usually used together

Question 14

describe asexual reproduction in protozoans

Answer 14

fission (splits), diplicates the original cell so you’re left with 2 of original

Question 15

describe sexual reproduction in protozoans

Answer 15

conjugation, swap of genetic material with other protozoans

Porocyte function

Answer 22

control the amount of water that enters pores into the spongocoel

Question 23
