Protists!!

Welcome  Bienvenidos  What is the difference between an autotroph and a heterotroph? Think of two examples of autotrophs and two examples of heterotrophs. What is the difference between single-celled and multicellular organisms? Give me three examples of single-celled organisms!

Inside of every drop of pond water… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-6dzU4gOJo WOW!!!!

The mysterious lives of pond creatures!! Stand up if you see a creature you recognize! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIMJWWpOrjw

Get their energy from eating other organisms Heterotroph Get their energy from eating other organisms Ex. Humans, animals Autotroph: Get their energy from the sun Ex. Plants, protists

Organisms made of many cells Ex. Humans, animals Single-celled Organisms made of 1 cell. Ex. Bacteria, protists Multi-cellular Organisms made of many cells Ex. Humans, animals

Asexual Reproduction: 1 parent to reproduce – dividing, replicating, etc. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY9DNWcqxI4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEwzDydciWc Sexual Reproduction: 2 parents – combining egg and sperm.

PROTISTS are… SINGLE-CELLED!!

ALL PROTISTS are… EUKARYOTIC Which means they have a NUCLEUS!!!

Amoeba (Blob Shape Shifters) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pR7TNzJ_pA Lives… Ponds, dead and decaying organisms Heterotroph Locomotion: use PSUEDOPODS (false feet) Reproduces…Asexual Reproduction

Amoeba Single-celled or multicellular? Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pR7TNzJ_pA Gets rid of waste with a Contractile Vacuole Single-celled or multicellular? Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic? Special Features? Shape-shifter!

Paramecium Lives… Ponds, freshwater Heterotroph http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saLYHUs6cWk Lives… Ponds, freshwater Heterotroph Locomotion: Moves using CILIA – tiny hairs Reproduces asexual reproduction

Paramecium Single-celled or multicellular? Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic? Gets rid of waste with a Contractile Vacuole Single-celled or multicellular? Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic? Special Features? Two Nucleus’s The most complex!

Euglena Lives…Ponds, freshwater Autotroph AND heterotroph https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jl0TzaWUQWk Lives…Ponds, freshwater Autotroph AND heterotroph Locomotion: Moves with flagella (tail) Reproduces…Asexual Reproduction

Euglena Single-celled or multicellular? Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jl0TzaWUQWk Gets rid of waste with a Contractile Vacuole Single-celled or multicellular? Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic? Special Features? BOTH autotroph and heterotroph

Volvox Ponds, freshwater Autotroph http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8O4OolGcPg Ponds, freshwater Autotroph Locomotion: Moves with 2 flagella (tails) Reproduces: Asexual AND sexual Reproduction

Volvox Single-celled or multicellular? Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8O4OolGcPg DOES NOT NEED TO GET RID OF WASTE Single-celled or multicellular? Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic? Special Features? Lives in colonies (large numbers)
