Remember!: Classification System

Ancestral Eukaryote We’ll be looking at all of these! Protists are everywhere in Eukarya! “the junk drawer of the eukaryotes”

This week.... 1 A & B: Euglenozoans Trypanosoma levisii Euglena (alive and prepared) 2 A: Stramenopiles Diatoms (living) Diatomaceous Earth Brown Algae Ectocarpus (living) Sphacelaria (living) Fucus (preserved) Laminaria (preserved) Sargassum (preserved) Water mold Saprolegnia (prepared) 2 B: Alveolates Paramecium caudatum (living) Peridinium (dinoflagellate, living) Other random dinoflagellates 2 C: Rhizarians (Foraminiferans and Radiolarians) - prepared Pro-tip: - Write these down. - Circle exercises in your manual.
10
Lab Study 1 A & B: Euglenozoans – Trypanosoma levisi (prepared slide) – Euglena (make wet mount)
11
Trypanosoma and red blood cells
12
Euglena
13
Lab Study 2 A: Stramenopiles Diatoms (Bacillariophyta) – make wet mount Also observe diatomaceous earth (the cell wall deposits from diatoms) – make wet mount and look at prepared slides
14
Diatom diversity
15
Diatom cell wall made of silica
16
Stramenopile flagella WHY do they have two? Why might they be different? Is it an adaptation? What is the function?
17
Brown Algae (Phaeophyta) Living: Ectocarpus and Sphacelaria Preserved: Fucus, Laminaria, Sargassum
18
Water mold
19
Lab Study B: Alveolates Ciliate: Paramecium caudatum – (wet mount) in manual Dinoflagellates: mixed dinoflagellates (live & wet mount), and Peridinium (wet mount) not in manual
20
Paramecium structures
22
Dinoflaggelates
23
Lab Study 2 C: Rhizarians Foraminiferans - prepared slides
24
Radiolarians - prepared slides
25
Think about… Morphological characteristics Ecology of the organism How does the organism get around? What role do they play in the ecosystem? Do they have any economic value? Where do they live? Don’t know the answer?? It’s probably a great research question! Ask me about it.
