the protist Plasmodium
Which protist causes the toxic tidal bloom?
dinoflagellates
The origin of the nuclear envelope was created by what?
protists by the infoldings of the plasma membrane
endosymbiosis
an organism of one species lives within another
endosymbiotic theory
mitochondria are derived from bacteria
- anaerobic eukaryote engulfs aerobic bacteria, bacteria lives inside cell, & eukaryote provides protection, carbon while bacteria supplies ATP
what is the internal support of protists?
silicon-containing skeletons
what is the external support for protists?
test or shell
colonial growth
cells aggregate but each cell performs the same function

multicellular growth
masses of closely interacting cells
- distinct cell or tissue types
True or False- Protists are much larager than bacteria and archaea
True
How do protists gain nutrients?
ingestion- filter feeders
(ex Pseudopodia)
