cell walls made of silica with proteins and polysaccharide attached

24
Q

how are cercozoans and Radiolarians distinguished from other protists?

A

threadlike pseudopodia ( flash feet)

25

A

silica

28
Q

Amoebozoa (A-meb-a-zoa)

A

protists that use pseudopodia for movement and feeding ( phagocytosis)

29
Q

major groups of amoebozoa

A

entamoeba, slime molds and gymnamoebas

30
Q

Entamoeba

A

parasites of vertebrates

31
Q

Gymnamoebas

A

free living in soil and aquatic enviromonets

32
Q

protoplasm

A

same as cytoplasm

33
Q

plasmodium

A

part of life cycle in slime molds when mass of protoplasm of indefinite shape and size with many nuclei that aren’t divided into separate cells

34
Q

for the plasmodium a _______ can form

A

sporangium ( containing multiple haploid spores

35
Q

the spores germinate yeilding _______.

A

swarmer cells ( flagellated or amoeboid)

36
Q

fusion of 2 swarmer cells regenerates_____

A

diploid plasmodium

37
Q

describe the plasmodial slime mold life cycle

A

start off as amoeboid cells which are haploid. find another haploid to mate with to form 2n zygote which grows into plasmodium. this is what feeds and can move. mature plasmodium fruits into sporangium and then releases haploid spores

38
Q

cellular slime molds contain

A

haploid amoebae

39
Q

aggregation of sepereate amoeboid forms a __________ in cellular slime mold

A

pseudiplasmodium

40
Q

under some conditions cellular slime molds can form diploid macro cysts which undergo meiosis and form new amoebae - example of _____

A

sexual reproduction

fungi form a sheath around plant root but do not penetrate it

46
Q

Endomycorrhizae

A

the fungi hyphae is embedded in the root (endo=in)

47
Q
