1 Marine Life Phytoplankton

2 Six Kingdoms Archaebacteria—blue green algae or cyanobacteria
Eubacteria—true bacteria Protista Fungi Plants Animalia

3 Kingdom Phylum-----divisions Class Order Family Genus Species

4 Bacteria Heterotrophic—most are decomposers
Autotrophic---photosynthetic or chemosynthetic No organelles Represent the smallest living organisms on earth Reproduce rapidly (about twice an hour)

5 Prokaryotic producers
Cyanobacteria---blue green algae Can tolerate a huge change in salinity and temperature Some of these are nitrogen fixers

6 Protists Three types Plant like Animal like Fungus like

7 Plant like Diatoms Dinoflagellates Silicoflagellates
There are more but we discuss these

8 Diatoms Eukaryotic Photosynthesize Reproduce sexually or asexual
12,000 species They have silica shells called frustules Called golden brown algae from the pigment carotenoid

9 Diatom reproduction Sexual asexual

10 dinoflegellates They have flagella They spin Unicellular
They have a primitive eyespot—sense light They can be seen in the light Cause algal blooms—red tide

11 Red tides

12 bioluminescence Produce light--

13 silicoflagellates Star shaped Have silica in their cell walls flagella

14 protozoans Animal like protists Euglena Amoeba paramecium

15 foraminiferans Phylum forminfera Mostly marine
Shells of calcium carbonate Psuedopods can retract

16 foraminiferans Phylum radiolarians Round elaborate shells
Made of silica Rotating spines

17 foraminiferans Phylum ciliophora

18 seaweeds Green—division chlorophyta Brown—division phaeophyta
Red—division rhodophyta

19 Seaweed structure

20 Chlorophyta Sea lettuce

21 Phaeophyta Padina Fucus spiralis kelp

22 Rhodophyta Porphyra corallina

23 Flowering plants Division anthophyta

24 Mangroves

25 Seagrass

26 Salt marsh

27 Kingdom Fungi

28 Lichens
