2. Protist
3. Bacteria (Monera)
4. Virus

4. Protist on the Move Flagella Cilia Pseudopod Whip-like tail
Small, hair-like extensions
False foot
Propels the Protist
Work like mini oars or to move food
Reaches out to drag itself or to capture food

5. Three groups
Plant-like Protist
Animal-like Protist
Fungi-like Protist

6. Animal-like Called Protozoan's
Can live in fresh or salt water, soil or in organisms
Examples: Paramecium, Amoebas, Flagellates, Plasmodium

7. Plant-like Usually called algae.
Examples: Euglena, Brown Algae, Red Algae, Diatoms

8. Fungus-like Similar to Fungi in that they decompose.
Eat off leaves in forests and rotting trees
Examples: Slime Mold

9. Helpful Primary food source for many ocean animals (Whales, kelp)
Used in food such as ice cream and sushi
Used in items such as paint, cosmetics, toothpaste
Make oxygen
Decomposers

10. Harmful
Disease (malaria and giardia)

11. Charles Laveran ( )
In 1880, while working in a military hospital Charles Laveran discovered that the cause of malaria is a protozoan after observing the parasites in a blood spear taken from a patient who had just died of the disease. He later worked on other diseases like sleeping sickness. For this work and later discoveries of protozoan diseases, he was awarded the 1907 Nobel Prize for Physiology of Medicine.

12. Sir Ronal Ross ( )
In 1897, while living in India, Ross became ill with malaria. Once he recovered, he began to study the disease specifically looking at mosquitoes and birds infected with the disease. He soon discovered the entire life cycle of the malarial parasite. He was able to prove that malaria was passed from infected birds by mosquitoes and other animals including humans. In 1902, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology of Medicine for his discovery.
