protists 3 Flashcards
alveolata taxonomy
kingdom- protistis
class- sar- eukaryotes
order- alveolata
sar taxonomy
kingdom- protistis
class- sar- eukaryotes
alveolata id
- trilaminar membrane (pellicle)
- ext surface covered with alveoli (flattened membranous bubbles)
ciliates taxonomy
kingdom- protistis
class- sar- eukaryotes
order- alveolata
family- ciliates
ciliates id
- macro and micro nucleus
balantidium coli taxonomy
kingdom- protistis
class- sar- eukaryotes
order- alveolata
family- ciliates
balantidium coli host
- pig and rat
- humans, dogs, horses, gorillas
balantidium coli id
very large
balantidium coli transmission
oral uptake of cysts
balantidium coli organ effected
cecum and colon
balantidium coli pathogenicity
usually harmless
apicomplexa taxonomy
kingdom- protistis
class- sar- eukaryotes
order- alveolata
family- apicomplexa
apicomplexa groups
- colpodellida
- conoidasida
- aconoidasida
conoidasida contains
- gregarinasina
- coccidiasina
aconoidasida contains
- haemospororida
- piroplasmorida
apicompexa- conoidasid taxonomy
kingdom- protistis class- sar- eukaryotes order- alveolata family- apicomplexa group- conoidasida
apicompexa- conoidasid movement
- movement of alveoli provide gliding motility (outer layers of men roll from front to back like thread on a tank)
- all have apical complex
apicompexa forms
- zoite
- sporozoites
- meroziotes
- schizozoites
- tachyzoites
- bradyzoites
zoite
fx unit (cigar shaped cell, migrates in host and invades cells, beginning and end of cycle)
sporozoites
- infective forms found in sporulated oocysts
- result of reduction division bc of fusion of gamates
merozoites or schizozoites
sporozoites invade host cells and form merozoites or schiozozoites through multiple internal fission called schizogony
tachyzoites
divide rapidly
bradyzoites
divide slowly
apicomplexa- conoidasida dx
- dx is present where schizonts multiply
apicomplexa conoidasida what type of parasites
parasites of cells (usually intracellular) -> obligate parasites
gregarinasina taxonomy
kingdom- protistis class- sar- eukaryotes order- alveolata family- apicomplexa group- conoidasida
gregarinasina host
invertebrates
gregarinasina relationship to host cell
primitive so large they don’t enter cell -> inside cell membrane but not in cytoplasm so cell doesn’t know they’re there when they die
- myzocytosis
- attach to cells via feeding organelle
gregarinasina life cycle
- have sex (haploid until they fuse, sex in host, cyst in environment)
gregarinasina organ effected
intestinal tract
cryptosporidium homminis taxonomy
kingdom- protistis class- sar- eukaryotes order- alveolata family- apicomplexa group- conoidasida
cryptosporidium homminis host
humans
cryptosporidium homminis life cycle
Oocyst ingested -> Sporozoite in body -> Trophozoite when penetrate cell -> Asexual repro to make merozoite -> Sex to form type II meront -> Undiff gamont becomes macro & micro -> Zygote
cryptosporidium homminis transmission
cysts from water in environment and food
cryptosporidium homminis organ effected
intestines
cryptosporidium homminis grows where
only in animals
cryptosporidium homminis see infections when
most infections in summer b/c thats when everyone is swimming
cryptosporidium parvum taxonomy
kingdom- protistis class- sar- eukaryotes order- alveolata family- apicomplexa group- conoidasida
cryptosporidium parvum host
- humans
- calves
- lambs
cryptosporidium parvum lifecycle
Thin wall oocyst stays in host causing auto-infection & thick wall oocyst exits (pop out of cyst & penetrate intestinal mucosa)
- Oocyst -> Sporocyst -> Sporozoite ->Merozoite (trophozoite) -> Schizont (meront) -> Schizozoite (go b/w last 2, 3 times over and over) ->Gamonts (macro & micro) -> Fert of macro by micro -> Zygote
cryptosporidium parvum transmission
cysts from environment
cryptosporidium parvum organ infected
intestines
