membrane-bound nucleus, a
central cavity that houses the cell’s genetic
material.

A

eukaryotes

24
Q

little organs

A

organelles

25
simple eukaryotic organisms - unicellular in nature but can also be found as a colony of cells
protists
26
live in water, damp terrestial environments or even as parasites
protists
27
golden algae and diatoms - found in marine and freshwater habitats
chrysophytes
28
photosynthethic and marine - the color they appear is dependent on the key pigments in their cells: they appear red, blue, brown, green or yellow
dinoflagellates
29
live in freshwater habitation in motionless water - the cell wall is absent in them, instead there is a _____________that is a protein-rich layer
euglenoids pellicle
30
sarprophytic - putrefying leaves and twigs - fornm an accumulation called PLASMODIAL SLIME MOULDS
slime molds
31
heterotrophs and survive either as parasites or predators
protozoans
32
- molds, mushroom, yeast, etc. FEATURES : - filamentous, excluding yeast - their figure comprises slender
kingdom fungi
33
fungi is composed of long thread-like constructionscalled
hyphae
34
web of hyphae
mycelium
35
- unbroken tubes which jam-packed with multinucleated cytoplasm
COENOCYTIC HYPHAE -
36
KINGDOM MONERA GROUPS
1. ARCHAEBACTERIA 2. EUBACTERIA
37
BACTERIA - parasitic or saprophytic
heterotrophic
38
BACTERIA - chemosynthetic or photosynthetic
autotrophic
