Introduction to Protists
Origins of Eukaryotic Diversity Chapter 28 Introduction to Protists
2
Origin of Eukaryotes First eukaryotic organism thought to have evolved about 1.5 billion years ago Protozoans possible evolved from the 1st eukaryotes by Endosymbiosis Endosymbiosis – process where one prokaryote lives inside another becoming dependent upon each other
3
Origin of Eukaryotes Membrane-bound nucleus and organelles
Eukaryotic cell more complex than prokaryotic cell: Membrane-bound nucleus and organelles Chromosomes consist of DNA and histone proteins and occur in pairs. Protists, fungi, plants & animals are composed of eukaryotic cells.
4
Prokaryotic Cells
5
Eukaryotic Animal Cell
Typical Animal Cell
6
Eukaryotic Plant Cell Typical Plant Cell
7
Animal Vacuole Functions vacuole Plant mitochondria chloroplasts
Storage Support Water Regulation vacuole Plant mitochondria chloroplasts Both cell types have membrane-bounded organelles
8
Origin of Eukaryotes Endomembrane infolding
Infolding of membrane system forming nucleus and ER
9
Origin of Eukaryotes Evolution of eukaryotic cell- Endosymbiosis
Theory proposed by Mereschkovsky and refines by Margulis- serial endosymbiosis Mitochondria and plastids were prokaryotes that invaded larger cells Endosymbiont, ancestral mitochondria: Aerobic, heterotrophic & prokaryotic
10
Origin of Eukaryotes Ancestral chloroplasts were photosynthetic, prokaryotes that became endosymbionts Relationship began as parasitic or undigested prey Assumed here that endomembrane infolding evolved first, i.e., cell already evolved nucleus, ER, …
11
Endosymbiosis Hypothesis
A A prokaryote ingested some aerobic bacteria. The aerobes were protected and produced energy for the prokaryote A B C D Cyanobacteria Aerobic bacteria Mitochondria Chloroplasts N N N Plant cell Prokaryote N Animal Cell
12
Endosymbiosis Hypothesis
Over a long period of time the aerobes became mitochondria, no longer able to live on their own A B C D Cyanobacteria Aerobic bacteria Mitochondria Chloroplasts N N N Plant cell Prokaryote N Animal Cell
13
Endosymbiosis Hypothesis
C Some primitive prokaryotes also ingested cyanobacteria, which contain photosynthetic pigments A B C D Cyanobacteria Aerobic bacteria Mitochondria Chloroplasts N N N Plant cell Prokaryote N Animal Cell
14
Endosymbiosis Hypothesis
Cyanobacteria became chloroplasts, unable to live on their own A B C D Cyanobacteria Aerobic bacteria Mitochondria Chloroplasts N N N Plant cell Prokaryote N Animal Cell

Secondary Endosymbiosis and Origin of Algal Diversity

Secondary Endosymbiosis

Euglenids Secondary endosymbiosis Green alga Chlorarachniophytes
17
LUCA model places the archaea as more closely related to eukaryotes than they are to prokaryotes.
18
Common ancestral community of primitive cells model
All three domains seem to have genomes that are chimeric mixes of DNA that was transferred across the boundaries of the domains.

Five Supergroups Excavata Chromalveolata Rhizaria Archaeplastida
Euglenoids Chromalveolata Dinoflagellates, diatoms, golden and brown algae Rhizaria Forams and radiolarians Archaeplastida Red and green algae Unikonta Slime molds

Plantae Fungi Animalia
Kingdom Protista Plantae Fungi Animalia Protista Monera prokaryotic eukaryotic
22
Kingdom Protista Eukaryotic Mostly unicellular
A very heterogeneous group include both heterotrophic and photoautotrophic forms 11 phyla Lots of disagreements Whittaker = “leftovers”
23
Reproduction: binary fission splits into two asexually
multiple fission producing more than two individuals sexually by conjugation (opposite mating strains join & exchange genetic material)
24
Kingdom Protista 3 informal groups Animal-like protists
Fungus-like protists Plant-like (algal) protists Misleading: some change ~ 45,000 species
25
Kingdom Plantae Kingdom Animalia Kingdom Fungi Kingdom Protista
Chlorophyta Ciliophora Myxomycota Phaeophyta Mastigophora Rhodophyta Chrysophyta Sarcomastigophora Euglenophyta Apicomplexa Pyrrophyta Kingdom Protista
26
Animal-like Protists Amoeba Cilliates Flagellates 13,000 species
27
Animal-like Protists Classified by the way they move pseudopodia cilia
flagella
28
Heterotrophs ingest small food particles & digest it inside food vacuoles containing digestive enzymes Paramecium consume nutrients from other organisms. Their diet is bacteria, algae, yeast and other micro-organisms. It uses its cilia (strand or tail) and consumes the substance along with water from the mouth of the paramecium. The food enters the gullet or stomach and is stored there. After the gullet is full, the food breaks away and creates a vacuole along with the water. The vacuole moves through the cell, enzymes break down the substance from the inside by entering the vacuole. The nutrients are removed from the vacuole into the cell and the cell gets smaller until it gets released from the cell as waste. Paramecium are interesting cause they eat micro-organisms and even resort to cannibalism. The protist kingdom is very diverse so it is hard to put comparisons on one another without a base.
