23
Q

what are frustules

A

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
Cercozoan: Foraminifera
marine org, form structures called tests (made from organic material and Calcium carbonate )
26
tests are made from
ORGGANIX MATERICAL AND CALCIUM CARBONATE
27
Radiolarians tests made from
silica
28
Amoebozoa (A-meb-a-zoa)
protists that use pseudopodia for movement and feeding ( phagocytosis)
29
major groups of amoebozoa
entamoeba, slime molds and gymnamoebas
30
Entamoeba
parasites of vertebrates
31
Gymnamoebas
free living in soil and aquatic enviromonets
32
protoplasm
same as cytoplasm
33
plasmodium
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
for the plasmodium a _______ can form
sporangium ( containing multiple haploid spores
35
the spores germinate yeilding _______.
swarmer cells ( flagellated or amoeboid)
36
fusion of 2 swarmer cells regenerates_____
diploid plasmodium
37
describe the plasmodial slime mold life cycle
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
cellular slime molds contain
haploid amoebae
39
aggregation of sepereate amoeboid forms a __________ in cellular slime mold
pseudiplasmodium
40
under some conditions cellular slime molds can form diploid macro cysts which undergo meiosis and form new amoebae - example of _____
sexual reproduction
41
fungi falls under ?
Opisthokonta
42
slime molds, cellular slime molds fall under
Amoebozoa
43
stramenopiles and alveolar fall under
Chromalveolata
44
fungi is
mutilcelluar
45
Ectomycorrhizae
fungi form a sheath around plant root but do not penetrate it
46
Endomycorrhizae
the fungi hyphae is embedded in the root (endo=in)
47
Mycoses
funga disease
48
how do fungi reproduce?
asexually
49
three ways fungi reproduce asexually
1) growth and spread of hyphen filaments 2) asexual spores 3) budding yeast
50
fungi can also reproduce sexual spore? T/F?
true
51
is yeast an example of fungi?
true- it is unicellular fungi
