What is this in your home? –We all have it and what tends to go in it?

Answer: The Junk drawer. –It’s where we put all the things that don’t have an organized place to go.

Protists are like the junk drawer.

–If it’s not a plant, animal, fungus, or bacteria it just goes in the junk drawer which we call Protists.

Protist: An organism with Eukaryotic Single cell, or colonies (multicellular). Lacking tissues and eats, makes, or decomposes for food.

Remember, Protists lack tissues. –Which specimen below is a protist, and which is an animal? Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Answer! Protists do not have eyes because an eye is made of tissue. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Note: Some protists such as the Euglena have a sensitive organelle called an eye spot to detect light. –It’s not a true eye.

Algae exist with fungi in a symbiotic relationship within lichen. –Lichen are terrestrial and the driest living organism on the planet.

Animal? Protist Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Is this a protist? Why of why not? Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Answer! No, because the specimen has tissues such as eyes, and some sort of digestive tract.

Is this a Protist? “Oh- Yah!” Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Answer! No, I don’t know what this is. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
