Q

_dinoflagellata

A

found in marine waters
paired flagella lying in grooves in their cell walls
dino=spin
cell wall: armor-like plates of cellulose
primary productivity of the ocean
cause red tide

Q

_diatoms

A

fresh & salt water
account for a large proportion of the photosynthesis
possess chl a, b, & carotenoids (combined give golden color)
contribute vast amounts of atmospheric oxygen
silica shell or two-valved tests
tests form deposits on sea floor which are used in filtering and abrasive products

Q

_gold algae

biflagellated
fresh water and marine plankton
all photosynthetic but some are mixotrophic

Q

Alteration of generation

A

the alteration of multicellular haploid and diploid forms. The diploid individual is called the sporophyte because it produces spores. The spores are haploid and move by means of flagella; they are called zoospores. The zoospores develop into haploid, multicellular male and female gametophytes, which produce gametes. The union of two gametes (ertilization, or syngamy)
results in a diploid zygote, which matures and gives rise to a new multicellular sporophyte.

Q

ex: macrocystis

A

fr _brown algae

  • tissue level of organization
  • stipe: stem
  • blade: leaf-like structure, primary site of photosynthesis
  • float: swollen, gas filled structure that holds blade near the ocean surface
  • holdfast: serves to anchor alga and superficially resembles a root
