1
The student is expected to: 8B categorize organisms using a hierarchical classification system based on similarities and differences shared among groups and 8C compare characteristics of taxonomic groups, including archaea, bacteria, protists, fungi, plants, and animals
2
The student is expected to: 11C summarize the role of microorganisms in both maintaining and disrupting the health of both organisms and ecosystems and 12A interpret relationships, including predation, parasitism, commensalism, mutualism, and competition among organisms
3
KEY CONCEPT Kingdom Protista is the most diverse of all the kingdoms.
4
Protists can be animal-like, plantlike, or funguslike.
Protists are eukaryotes that are not animals, plants, or fungi.
5
Animal-like protists consume other organisms.
heterotrophs single-celled
6
Plantlike protists are photosynthetic.
single-celled, colonial, or multicellular no roots, stems, or leaves
7
Funguslike protists decompose dead organisms.
heterotrophs can move, whereas fungi cannot
8
Protists are difficult to classify.
Protista is one kingdom in the domain Eukarya.
9
Protist classification will likely change.
Some protists are not closely related. Molecular evidence supports reclassification.
10
KEY CONCEPT Animal-like protists are single-celled heterotrophs that can move.
11
Animal-like protists move in various ways.
Animal-like protists are often called protozoa. macronucleus food vacuole oral groove micronucleus contractile vacuole cilia
12
Protozoa with flagella are zooflagellates.
flagella help zooflagellates swim more than 2000 zooflagellates
13
change shape as they move
Some protists move with pseudopods. change shape as they move amoebas <iframe width="420" height="315" src="// frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="// frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
14
Some protists move with pseudopods. change shape as they move amoebas
foraminifera
15
cilia help protists swim and capture food
Some protozoa move with cilia. cilia help protists swim and capture food more than 8000 ciliates macronucleus food vacuole oral groove micronucleus contractile vacuole cilia
16
Some animal-like protists cause disease.
Protists cause some well-known infectious diseases. sporozoites human liver liver cells developed parasites red blood cells Malaria is caused by Plasmodium and spread by mosquitoes. Sleeping sickness is caused by Trypanosoma and spread by flies. A giardia infection is caused by Giardia and spread through water. Malaria Infection
17
KEY CONCEPT Algae are plantlike protists.
18
Plantlike protists can be single-celled or multicellular.
Photosynthetic plantlike protists are called algae. colony daughter colony
19
mostly photosynthetic
Euglenoids are a large group of plantlike protists. mostly photosynthetic some heterotrophic single-celled one or two flagella pellicle nucleus chloroplast eye spot contractile vacuole flagellum
20
have stiff protective plates
Dinoflagellates are mostly marine plantlike protists. have two flagella may be bioluminescent have stiff protective plates can cause red tide Dinoflagellates
21
produce large amounts of oxygen
Diatoms are plantlike protists with glasslike shells. shells made of silica produce large amounts of oxygen
22
Multicellular algae are classified by their pigments.
Green algae contain chlorophyll a and b. Brown algae contain chlorophyll c. Red algae contain chlorophyll a and phycoerythrin.
23
Many plantlike protists can reproduce both sexually and asexually.
All algae can reproduce asexually. Multicellular algae can fragment. Chlamydomonas divides into zoospores.
24
Some algae produce sexually.
Some species alternate generations. Sexual reproduction can be triggered by environmental stress.
25
KEY CONCEPT Funguslike protists decompose organic matter.
26
Slime molds and water molds are funguslike protists.
Slime molds have both funguslike and animallike traits. decomposers, like fungi can move, like animals
27
Slime molds can be plasmodial or cellular.
Plasmodial slime molds are giant cells with many nuclei. Cellular slime molds contain independent cells.
28
Water molds are freshwater, funguslike protists.
one type of water mold caused Great Potato Famine of Ireland in the 1800’s made of branching strands of cells can be parasites of plants or fish
