Lesson 2 Part 2 Flashcards
Adaptive Diversification where most advanced in ciliates and intracellular parasites in Apicomplexa and Microspora
Specialization
Adaptive Diversification Have adapted to a wide range of habitats and show great variation and photosynthetic abilities
Flagelatted forms
Adaptive Diversification have radiated into a wide range of environments
Have become morphologically diverse
Ameboid forms
Supergroups under fornicata
Retortamonads and Diplominads
Supergroups under rhizaria
Cercozoa, foraminifera, radiolaria
Supergroups under unikont
Amebozoa and Opisthokonta
All taxa other than unikonts with two flagella
Bikonts
What is under SAR
Stramenophile, Alveolata, Rhizaria
What are under excavata
Fornicata, parabasalea, heterlobosea, euglenozoa
Its clade is characterized by flattened mitochondria cristae, have one posterior flagellum on flagelatted cells
Opisthokonta
Best known unicellular taxa in opisthokonta: (2)
Microsporidians and choanoflagellates
Contains metazoan animals? Fungi and some unicellular taxa
Opisthokanta
In the group of Opisthokonta this is an intracrllular parasitic fungi
Microsporidian
In the group of Opisthokonta, these are solitary or colonial cells that are most likely sister taxon to animals
Choanoflagellates
This includes naked and testate amebas and also those with flagelatted stages in life cycle
Amoebozoa
Ameboid forms within tye group includes tye plasmodial and cellular slime molds in subgroup ____? (Give its examples)
Mycetozoa: physarum and dictyostelium
Testate amebas with lobose pseudopodia
Arcella
Naked lobose amebas
Chaos carolinense
Amoeba proteus
It is an ameba that kill cells in the human cornea where spread by contact lenses when not properly disinfected
Acanthamoeba castellani
This is an ameba that invades the intestinal wall secreting enzymes that attack the intestinal lining leading to amebic dysentery
Entamoeba histolytica
Entamoeba found in humans in their intestine ans mouth
Instestine - Entamoeba coli
Mouth - Entamoeba gingivalis
Amebas with flattened mitochondria crusta and distinct axopodia with axoneme arranged in hexagonal or triangular sets
Centrohelida
Are centrohelida predators?
Yes
This is anmwater that is more saline than freshwater but less saline than true marine environments. Often these are transitional areas between fresh and marine waters.
Brackish water
