Kingdoms: Protista Fungi Plantae
2
Kingdom Protista Unicellular eukaryotes Many are both plant- and animal- like Examples: unicellular algae and protozoans
3
Algae ( Kingdom Protista ) Eukaryotic, photosynthetic (chloroplasts) and mostly aquatic Lack true stems, leaves, roots & flowers (some have flagella) Simple reproductive structures Referred to as plants
4
Seaweeds Multicellular algae Aka – macrophytes Multicellular and complex Often classified in the Plantae Kingdom
5
Seaweeds have great economic importance around the world as a food source and in numerous products we use every day. There are three types of seaweed Draw Structure of seaweed and label
7
1. Green Algae Mostly found In inter-tidal areas and shallow bays.
8
2. Brown Algae Large and complex
9
3. Red algae More species than other two types combined Some involved in coral reef formation Can grow up to 10 feet in length
10
Dinoflagellates Unicellular 2 unequal flagella Mostly in tropical regions Bioluminescent properties Have an eyespot Related to algae Auto and heterotrophic
11
Pyrrophyta bloom Noctiluca will glow in The dark a greenish blue light
12

13
Algae Blooms
14
Gymnodinium or Red Tide The bloom reduces oxygen levels causing fish kills Gonyaulax also produces red tide causing paralytic shell-fish poisoning and contain a toxin saxotoxin which interferes with the nervous syst. Invertebrates are not affected so how do humans contract it?
15
Algae Blooms Devastated the scallop industry in eastern Long Island. This is an algal bloom of brown tide.
16
DIATOMS Contain a green pigment called cholorophyll In structures called chloroplasts The cell walls are made of silica or glass so the cell wall is transparent to light
17
Cell structures of Diatoms Cell wall pores- control what enters and exits the cell.
18
Cell structures of Diatoms Cell wall pores - control what enters and exits the cell. Endoplasmic reticulum - network of channels for transport of molecules Ribosomes - place where proteins are made
19
Cell structures of Diatoms Mitochondria - cell’s energy factory. Sugar is broken down into chemical energy, ATP. Vacuole -storage structure in cells. Diatoms use it to store oil What substance can eventually be produced from the diatom’s vacuoles by the gradual buildup over geologic time of diatomic sediment? Petroleum
20
Species unicellular, glassy (silica shell), photosynthetic Stores food as oil and carbohydrates Important part of Polar water plankton
23
Diatom Diversity More than 25K species Most inhabit the cold waters of the planet. What prevents them from sinking? A. spines B. oil
24
Asexual Reproduction 2 halves of the shell separate and each half grows another half.
25
Deposits of Diatomaceous Earth Used in filtration devises Purifying drinking water Removing tape worms Colon cleansing
26
As a Food Source Tiny invertebrates feed on them including: Copepods Mussels Clams Oysters scallops http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cp9ym5M0RUc& feature=player_embedded

38
Coccolithophores Overlapping Calcium Carbonate platelets Photosynthetic Tropical/Subtropical
39
Protozoans Animal-like protists Heterotrophic Eukaryotic Single-celled Microscopic
40
Phyto and zooplankton
41
Foraminiferans Have shells made of calcium carbonate Use pseudopodia to capture food Most are bottom dwellers
42
Radiolarians Mostly planktonic Elaborate and delicate shells made of glass (silica) Shells are spherical with radiating spine Pseudopodia are thin and needle-like
43
Radiolarians
44
Ciliates Have hair-like cilia for locomotion and feeding The paramecium Found mostly on seaweed and bottom sediments
45
Kingdom Fungi Eukaryotic, plant-like but without chlorophyll Multicellular 500 species of marine fungi Most unique are the lichens
46
Lichens Symbiotic relationship with algae – lichens provide the support and the algae provide the food.
47
Kingdom Plantae Flowering plants Angiosperms, dominant species on land
48
Seagrasses – Marine flowering plants, not true grasses, mostly submerged Most related to the lily family Found in the tropics
49
Cord grasses – true grasses Land plants, salt tolerant Submerged only at high tide Salt marsh plants
50
Mangroves – shrubs and trees adapted to live along tropical and subtropical shores Tolerate salt Only roots are in the water Live only on land
