stramenopila pt.1 Flashcards
What are Stramenopila?
the s part of the supergroup SAR
what is the history of the Stramenopila?
PROB
-> started autotrophic, then lost it, then SOME regained it (ie the diacomns and brown algae)
Photosynthesit Stramenopila chloroplats are
2ndary capture from red algea (chlorophyll a and c)
Synapamorphies of Stramenopila
1) 2ndary capture
2) biflagellate } 1 tinsle, 1 wiplash. Some have 1 so small looks monoflagilated
What is diatom?
- > photosynthetic
- > phytoplankten
- > pigment: a c and carotinoids
- > flagila in sperm only
diatom structure
THINK BOX
- > in a glass silica box
- –> top epithica, bottom hypothica
- > have many holes/valves
diatom reproduction
ASEXUAL
-> Box separated through binary fission and becomes top box. Means half of new ones keep getting smaller and smaller
SEXUAL
-> with stress (not commin in env). throuhg meisois one sperm one egg, fuse and make a new thica glass houe
Chrysphyta
golden brown algea
- > Pigment: a, c and FUXANTHIN
- > has both flagella
- > mostly in fresh water
Phaeophyta
brown algea
- > Pigment: a, c and FUXANTHIN (lots)
- > no silica
- > almost all marine species
LC of ectocarpales
Isomorphic alternation of gen
- > asexual, with pluroculus sporangia (many compartments) to make zoospore
- > SEX
- —> sporangia is uniculors and produces meiospores that make a m or f gametophyte, which makes the isogamous gamets
LC of laminaria
KELP and seaweed, heteromorphic
- > on blades sporothallus akes meiospors that make 2 (m/f) gametophytes, which make oogamous gametes.
- > gametophyte often on seaweed
