Q

Phylum rhizaria

A

Attached to rocks or sand in marine water. Shells made of calcium carbonate. Move by pseudo podia.

16

Apicomplexans are

A

Nearly all parasites of animals.

18
Q

Stramenophiles

A

Stramenopila refers to numerous hair like projections on the flagella. E.g. Diatoms, brown algae.

19

Golden algae cells are

A

Biflagellated

20
Q

Plastids of red algae, green algae and land plants have a

A

Double membrane envelope. Originated by primary endosymbiosis.

21
Q

Heterotrophic host cells captured cyanobacterial cells via phagocytosis but did not digest them.

A

Primary symbiosis

22
Q

Primary plastids evolved from

A

Endosymbiotic Cyanobacteria within a host.

23
Q

Secondary plastids evolved from a

A

Photosynthetic eukaryote. Originated from secondary endosymbiosis.

24
Q

Oomycetes (water molds)

A

Heterotrophic, lack chloroplasts. Biflagellated zoospores that infect others. Cell wall made of cellulose.

25
Q

Super group Amoebozoa

A

Common in soil, freshwater and marine water. Most are heterotrophic.

26
Q

Plasmodial slime molds

A

Most are brightly pigmented. Not multicellular. Mass called plasmodium.

27
Q

Cellular slime molds

A

Form multicellular aggregrates when nutrients deplete. Cells remain separated by their membranes.
