Lecture 11 Flashcards
Metabolic diversification?
Evolution of aerobic resp using oxygen
Greater structural diversity of eukaryotic cell?
Collagen production began
Collagen?
Connecting tissue that binds cells together
Origin of eukaryotic cells?
- Infold of cell membrane
- Ancestral host cell took on an endosymbioticaerobic heterotrophic prokaryote (becomes mitochondria)
- Other engulf photosynthetic prokaryotes (become chloroplast)
Evidence for Endosymbiosis?
Binary fission
resemble bacteria
Dna is circular
2 cell membrane layers
Protista (paraphyletic)?
Highly diverse group of EUKARYOTES (but not fungi, plants, or animals)
Paramecium?
Feed on bacterias and smaller protists (phagocytosis)
Reproduce asexually via conjugation or binary fission
Plasmodium?
Agent of malaria
Trypanosomabrucei?
Sleeping sickness that affects CNS
Giardia lamblia?
Diarrhea. acquired by drinking water contaminated (parasite cysts)
Dinoflagellates?
Photosynthetic with 2 flagella. Reinforced cellulose plating
Red tide?
Produce toxins
Deplete oxygen level
Brown algae?
Multicellular, large photosynthetic.
Waterproofing & fireproofing fabrics
Archaeplastids?
Land plants
Red Algae
Green Algae
Red algae?
Multicellular, seaweed
