Diatoms - Division Chyryophyta
Single celled
Cell walls made of "glass"
glass walls enhance photosynthesis
"shells" have perforation to exchange substances
Brown Algae - Division Phaeophyta
Not much structure, go with current
Gas pockets all over colonies to help them float up so they can preform photosynthesis
Cell wall has added polysaccharides
Chromists
Diatoms
Brown algae
Water molds
Many different forms living as multicellular colonies
Water molds - Division Oomycota
heterotrophic
filamentous bodies
grow in colonies, but not neccesary
mobile flagellated bodies
Have gametes that can swim
Alveolates
Dinoflagellates
Apicomplexans
Ciliates
most live as single cells
mixed nutrition methods including parasitic
Dinoflagellates - Division Pyrrophyta
Mostly marine
2 flagella, one at end and one around center (equatorial groove)
Uni-cellular, don't grow in colonies
Most have cellulose wall
Responsible for red tides when population growth explodes
Apicomplexans(Sporozoans) - Phylum Apicomplexa
All are parasites with a mobile stage(sporozoite)
Plasmodium - Malaria
Ciliates - Phylum Ciliophora
Most species freshwater
Cilia can cover body, or be in patches
Most complex: Oral groove and anal pore as well as two types of nuclei
Oral groove is mouth, anal groove is well, anus
Macronucleus - day-to-day business
Micronucleus - sexual reproduction
Amoebozoans
Amoebas
Acellular Slime Molds
Cellular Slime Molds
Mainly multicellular colonies
heterotrophic
move using pseudopodia
Sarcodines(ameoba) - Phylum Saromastigophora
Uses pseudopodia for moving and feeding
Some can be parasitic - amoebic dysentery
Some species build shells like snail shells
Foraminiferans-make CaCO3 shells for structure and protection
Slime molds
Acellular and Cellular
Two stages: mobile feeding stage, breaking down food and absorbing it from environment. stationary reproductive stage with fruiting body that produces spores
Make spore sacs that release spores into environment when sacs are broken
Acellular Slime Molds - Division Myxomycota
A.k.a plasmodial slime molds
name from plasmodium, mobile feeding stage of the organism
In mobile stage organism goes through mitosis but not cytokinesis
Can undergo cytosis but not telokinesis
Results in acellular organism which looks like one big multi-nucleated cell
Moves through decaying material engulfing bacteria and food particles
In harsh environments forms a mound to produce stalked fruiting body that make haploid spores
Cellular Slime Mold - Division Acraisomycota
two part life cycle where individuals aggregate. colonies get close to multi-cellular behavior
move using pseudopodia
Euglenozoans
Euglenids
Kinetoplastids
distinctive mitochondria
move via flagella
Euglenoids - Division Euglenophyta
can act like animal or plant
Mostly freshwater, 1-3 flagella
Primarily photosynthetic, but can be heterotrophic
No cell wall so it can engulf things
Photoreceptor eyespot - Can't see but can sense light, swims when light is off, sits still when on
Kinetoplastids
One flagellum
Free living symbiotic species
Some species are parasitic: Trypanosoma -sleeping sickness
Excavates
Diplomonads
Parabasalids
move via flagella
have a feeding groove
heterotrophic and lack mitochondria
Diplomonad
free living and symbiotic
two nuclei
multiple flagella
Can be infectious: Giardia
Parabasalids
anaerobic
all are symbiotic, some parasitic
Trichomnas vaginalis - STD of the group
Red Algae - Division Rhodophyta
Plant like protists
form colonies
mainly marine, some freshwater
grow deep water
red color from accessory pigments to help boots photosynthssis
Cell wall added by polysaccharides
Some are held upright by CaCO3
Supports deep water food web
Green Algae - Division Chlorophyta
Don't need to be multicellular to live
Some marine and freshwater species
Unicellular and colony forms
Chloropolasts in algae like those in plants
Cell wall only cellulose
Closest ancestor to modern plants
