Characteristics of Living Things (organisms) 1. All living things are made of cells A cell is the smallest living unit that can carry out life processes Living things can be 1 celled (unicellular) or more than 1 cell (multi-cellular)
PROTISTS Complete the chart in the packet using the pages listed and the chart in the packet!!!!! We will use this chart to make a protist cube!!!! Plant-like (have chloroplasts)– Euglenoids Page 51 Animals-like(no chloroplasts) Sarcodina(Ameoba) – 52 Ciliates- 54 zooflagellates- 53 sporozoans - 55
Difference Between Multi-cellular and Unicellular Animal Plant Euglena
Multi-cellular Kingdoms Unicellular Kingdoms Arachebacteria Eubacteria Protista Multi-cellular Kingdoms Plant Fungi Animal
Arachebacteria Examples This hot, sulfur-rich, acidic pool in Yellowstone National Park is home to species of Archea, including Sulfolobus. Some archaens live 1000’s of miles deep in the ocean near superheated volcanic vents.
Examples of Eubacteria Anthrax Bacteria help digest food Strep E. Coli Binary Fission Blue green algae
Examples of Protists Paramecium Algae Amoeba Volvox Stentor Euglena Fission Red algae
Make their own food through photosynthesis Classified by color Some organisms are made of only 1 cell (unicellular) Arachebacteria, Eubacteria and Protists Unicellular Organisms make up most of living organisms on Earth 2 Types of Protists *Plant-like protists Make their own food through photosynthesis Classified by color *Animal-like protists Cannot make their own food Classified by how they move
Examples of Protists Algae
Examples of Protists Amoeba
Examples of Protists Paramecium Volvox Stentor
TYPES OF PROTISTS Sarcodina (sarcodines) Moves – pseudopod (fake foot) Eats - engulfs food with pseudopod (consumer) Reproduces - asexual by binary fission Traits – Some are parasites Some have glass shells. Amoeba feeding Foraminiferans with shell
TYPES OF PROTIST Paramecium (Ciliates) Reproduce – asexually by binary fission, sexually by conjugation Food – Cilia sweeps the food into the oral groove (consumer) Moves–Cilia Examples – Paramecium, Stentor Traits – synchronized swimmer Paramecium Conjugation Stentor
TYPES OF PROTISTS - Animal-like Zooflagellates (Trypanosoma and Trichomonas) Moves – Flagella Reproduces – Binary fission Food – takes in food (consumer) Examples –listed above and Giardia Traits – some are parasites. Trypanosoma African Sleeping Sickness Giardia diarrhea
Sporozoans (Plasmodium vivaz, Gregarina) TYPES OF PROTISTS Sporozoans (Plasmodium vivaz, Gregarina) Food – Takes in food and many are parasites (consumer) Moves – NO MOVEMENT!!!! Reproduces – binary fission form spores Traits – Causes severe disease Plasmodium malaria Gregarina
TYPES OF PROTISTS Volvox Chlorophyta Color - Green Food – Makes its own food Reproduces – binary fission Example - Volvox Volvox Movement Volvox
TYPES OF PROTISTS Chrysophyta Color – golden-brown Food – Makes its own food Reproduces – binary fission Example – Diatoms Trait – glassy shells, so many of them in the ocean they are responsible for most of the oxygen in our atmosphere
TYPES OF PROTISTS Pyrrophyta Bioluminescent Explained Color - red Food – Makes its own food Moves – 2 flagella Reproduces – binary fission Example – dinoflagellates (also called fire algae) Trait – causes red tide (poisons water), bioluminescent (gives off light)
TYPES OF PROTISTS Euglenoids Food – Photosynthesis or traps food if no light. (consumer & producer) Moves – Flagella Color- Green Reproduces –Binary Fission Traits -Eyespots for sensing light,in its own group because both animal & plant-like Euglena
