Test 2 Flashcards
size for prokaryotes
small compared to eukaryotes
size for eukaryotes
bigger compared to prokaryotes 100 micrometers
genetic material for prokaryotes
single, circular chromosomes
genetic material for eukaryotes
multiple linear chromosomes
nature of cell division for prokaryotes
binary fission
nature of cell division for eukaryotes
mitosis and meiosis
internal compartmentalization for prokaryotes
no membrane bound organelles
internal compartmentalization for eukaryotes
contains membrane bound organelles
structure of flagellae for eukaryotes
9+2 flagella
cell wall structure of prokaryotes
peptidoglycan cell wall
cell wall structure of eukaryotes
cellulose/chitin/silica cell wall
presence or absence of cytoskeleton in prokaryotes
absent
presence or absence of cytoskeleton in eukaryotes
present
structure of cilia or flagella
long, rod like structure that is an extension of the body. connected to basal body
9 double microtubules surround 2 single microtubules
cilia are just shorter
why is protista no longer recognized as formal taxonomic group
contains classifications of plant, fungi and animal
excavata general features
feeding groove
chromalveolata
corticle aveoli
sac like structure near membrane
three types of motility
cilia/ flagella
cell extension
cell flow
cilia/flagella motility description
membrane bound cell exntensions
beat, whip around
cell extensions motility
cell spits something out with force
not membrane bound
cell flow motility
pseudopodia
part of cell membrane
change in cell shape
types of pseudopodia
lobopodia axopodia filipodia reticulopodia rhizopodia
lobopodia
rounded
crawl movement
axopodia
pointy
increase surface area or defense
rhizopodia
extensions like hand
attachment to prey or surface
filopodia
rounded point
increased resistance to descent in a water column
reticulopodia
rounded with netting
capturing
pellicle
membrane associated proteins
protection and allowing them to maintain shape, more hydrodynamic
how are pellicles in apicomplexa
in packed vesicles called aveoli
how are pellicles in euglenoids
protein strips aligned spirally along body
axostyle
stiffened rod made of microtubules extends along longitudinal axis of body
endoskeletal framework, locomotion
mixotrophic
uses both autotroph and heterotroph
function of apical complex
host cell penetration
kinetoplast
modified mitochondria with condensed DNA
conjugation and micronucleus in paramecium
cells exchange micro nuclei
meiosis of two nuclei when 4 in each cell present, exchange of one nuclei to other cell while other 2 nuclei in cell desentegrate
causes two micronuclei with shared dna
what is the cell wall like of dinoflagellate
cell wall composed of separate cellulosic “plates” known as theca that lie just with in cell membrane
how many flagella in dinoflagellate/dinophyta
2
oriented perpendicular to each other and beat with in 2 grooves
significance of zooxanthellae and various toxins produced by dinoflagellate
store starch
live in tissues of various invertebrate including corals and molluscs
provide food for invertebrates
structure of radiolarian
silicieous skeleton provides fossil
endoplasm is capsule
outer ectoplasm is calymma
difference between shell of radiolaria and foraminiferan
radiolaria has silicieous
foraminiferan has silicieous or calcium carbonate
general features of porifera
radial or asymmetrical symmetry mostly marine filter and suspension feeders polyp or medusa no organs or organ systems
asconoid
basic filter, open cavity
choanocyte line inside the filter
syconoid
chambers, choanocyte line chambers not inside
leuconoid
most complex, best filter due to most surface area absorption
amoebocytes
redistribute nutrients
found under choanocyte
archeocytes
create skeletal elements for sponge
skeletal elements found in sponge created by archeocytes
collenocyte, sclerocyte, and spongeocyte
choanocytes
capture food, filter food
pinacocytes
covering cell, epidermal cell
porocytes
control size of opening
monitor and adjust size of dermal ostia
filter feeding process and digestion in porifera
the flagella on choanocyte whizes water through reticulopodia into choanocyte
amoebocyte takes nutrients from choanocyte to other areas of the sponge
