1 Caroline Fowle, John Ligtenberg
Protozoans Caroline Fowle, John Ligtenberg

2 Rhizopoda Pseudopodia Amoeba Radiolarians Heliozoans Many Nuclei
Contractile vacuole Radiolarians Thin, tall pseudopodia Central capsule Heliozoans Simpler scales and spines

3 Differences Heliozoans: Radiolarians: Amoeba
Microtubule projections smaller Axopods Radiolarians: Have central capsule Amoeba Multiple Nuclei Contractile vacuoles

4 Foraminiferans Cytosol extends out Calcium shells
Decompose to calcareous ooze Alternation of generations Gamont: single nucleus Schizont: multiple nuclei

5 Uses of Forams Act as bioindicators Are used to locate oil
Relative dating of rocks Reconstructing ocean currents

6 Calcareous Ooze Calcium based Not in deep sea Decomposed organisms
Covers 1/3 of earth’s suface

7 Paramecium Unique structures: Cilia 2 types of nuclei
Contractile vacuole

8 Conjugation Terms: Syngamy Micro/macro-nuclei

9 Soccer Game Questions A 12 B 13 1. Calcareous ooze is formed by what?
2. Which type of protozoa has two types of nuclei? 3. What are 3 uses for foraminiferans? 4. Foraminiferans have shells composed of what element? 5. What is the fusion of 2 haploid micronuclei to create a diploid? 6. Because of its freshwater environment what organelle is used? 7. How does (answer to number 6) function? 8. Which microtubule is used by paramecium? 9. What is this: A? 11. B? (Same picture as 10) 12 and 13: describe the step A 12 B 13

10 Soccer Game Questions A B
14. What is the diploid stage of a foraminifera called? 15. What do foraminiferans become after they die? 16. Name a difference between heliozoans and radiolarians. 17. What is the haploid stage of a forminifera called? 18. What are the “spokes” coming off heliozoans called? 19. How do radiolarians stay bouyant? 20. Which rhizopod has a contractile vacoule? 21. Name a use of calcareous ooze. 22. What do Rhizopds use to move? 23. What is the rhizopod in picture A? 24. What are the objects in picture B? 25. What is the principal compositions of calcareous ooze? A B
