Terms | Definitions |
|---|---|
 Have membrane-bound organelles and their DNA is found within a membrane-bound nucleus. | Eukaryotes |
| By their method of nutrition | Protists classification |
| Absorb nutrients from other organisms. | Fungus-like |
| Eukaryotes formed when a large prokaryote and a smaller prokaryote exist symbiotically, eventually evolving into a single organism | Theory of Endosymbiosis |
| Method of movement | Protozoans are classified |
| Hair-like projects used to propel themselves through water and to move food particles into the cell. They are abundant in most aquatic environments and mud. | Cilia |
| Paramecium | Ciliate |
| Elongated cylindrical bodies that can discharge a spine-like structure used for defense in paramecia | Trichocysts |
| Expel excess water from the cell | Contractile vacuole |
| A membrane that encloses | Pellicle |
| Used for reproduction | Micronucleus |
| Used for reproduction | Macronucleus |
| Temporary extension of cytoplasm that can surround and envelope a smaller organism. | Pseudopod |
| Amoeba | Sacrodine |
| Hard, porous covering which surrounds the cell membrane. | Test |
| Reproductive cells that form without fertilization | Spores |
| African Sleeping Sickness, malaria, Chagas disease | Animal-like protists diseases |
| Long whiplike projection that protrude from the cell and are used for movement | Flagella |
| 1. Composition of cell wall. 2. Type of chlorophyll and secondary pigments 3. Method of food storage | 3 Criteria classify algae |
| Unicellular algae provide the base of the food web in aquatic environments and produce much of the oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere. | Phytoplankton |
| Produce blooms- they are members of the phylum pyrrophyta, some are bioluminescent. | Dinoflagellates |
| Lethal nerve toxin produced | Red tides |
| Have flagella, can photosynthesize and be heterotrophs, member of the phylum euglenophyta. | Euglenoids |
| A light sensitive receptor that helps orient the euglenoid toward light for photosynthesis. | Eyespot |
| Volvox, Desmids, Spirogyra | Green Algae |
| Depth of water to find red algae | Deeper than most other algae |
| Is a life cycle of algae that takes two generation- one that reproduces sexually and one that reproduces asexually- to complete a life cycle | Alternation of generations |
| Haploid form of algae that produces the diploid form | Gametophyte generation |
| Diploid form produced from the haploid gametophyte generation | Sporophyte generation |
| Feed on decaying organic matter, absorb nutrients through their cell walls, use spores to reproduce | Fungus-like protists |
| They go through a phase in which the nucleus divides but no internal cell walls form, can produce a plasmodium, in the phylum myxomycota | Acellular slime molds |
| Spend most of their life as a single amoeba- like cell, in phylum acrasiomycota, give off acrasin and form slug-like colonies. | Cellular slime molds |
| Golden Brown | Color of chrysophytes |
| Members of the phylum phaeophyta, example is kelp, have bladders to keep it floating near the surface. | Brown algae |
| Cell walls composed of chitin, most are multicelleular, are eukaryotes | Fungi |
| Mass of thread-like filaments that make up the body of a fungus | Hyphae |
| Net-like mass of hyphae | Mycelium |
| Is an organism that feeds on dead organism or organic wastes | Saprobe |
| Asexual reproduction in yeasts- the new cell develops while attached to the parent cell | Budding |
| Form of asexual reproduction that occurs when the mycelium of a fungus is broken apart. | Fragmentation |
| Have a protective cell wall, produced in large quantities, small and lightweight | Benefits of spores |
| Bread mold | Zygomycota example |
| Hyphae that spreads across the surface of food. | Stolons |
| Hyphae that penetrate the food and absorb nutrients, produce enzymes. | Rhizoids |
| No- plus and minus | Males and Females in fungi? |
| Phylum ascomycota, produce spores called conidia, spores are formed in a sac called the ascus. | Sac fungi |
| Phylum Basidiomycota, have fruiting body called a basidiacarp, include mushrooms | Club fungi |
| A symbiotic relationship between a fungus and an alga. | Lichen |
| Source of penicillin, decomposers, used for cleaning the environment of pollutants, used to make foods like cheese and bread, used to produce cyclosporine. | Fungi uses |
| Oral thrush, athlete's foot, ringworm | Fungal diseases |
