1 Protozoans Stentor The most diverse kingdom- Are eukaryotic
More than 200,000 species More complex than bacteria Good guys and bad guys Stentor

2 3 Groups Protozoa Animal Like Plant like Fungus like Amoeba

3 Animal Like Paramecium One celled Consumers (heterotrophs)
Parasites, decomposers, hunters Have movement by cilia or flagella Amoeba move by plasmodia (oozing) Paramecium

4 Plant like: Algae Unicellular or *Multicellular Photosynthesize
*multicelluar means colonial Photosynthesize Produce most the the oxygen in the world Phytoplankton: basis of ocean food chain (keystone species).

5 Plant like Euglena Unicelluar Diatoms golden algae Euglenoids can move
Dinoflagellates spinning algae Euglena

6 Diatoms

7 Plant like Volvox Algae: no roots, stems, or leaves
Multicellular (colonial: forms colonies) Green algae Red algae Brown algae Volvox

8 Fungus Like Decomposers Can do a great deal of damage to crops

9 Fungus Like                                                              Slime Molds Water Molds Downy molds
