Protist
diverse, mostly unicellular groups of eukaryotes
Secondary Endosymbiosis
red alge and green algae underwent this. they were ingested in the food vacuole of heterotrphic eukaryotes and became endosymbionts themselves
amitochondriate protists
a group of lacking conventional mitochondria and having few membrane bounded organelles
diplomonads
they have modifed mitochondria called mitosomes
1. they lakc functional electron transport chains and cannot use oxygen to help extract energy from carbohydrates
parabasalids
reduced mitochondria
eugleozoans
diverse clade that includes predatory heterotrophs, photsynthetic autotrophs, and parasites. the presence of a spiral or crystaliline rode of unknown function
kinetoplastids
large single mitochondrion that contains an organized mass of DNA called a kinetoplast.
euglenid
pocket at one end of the cell from which one or two flagella emerge
dinoflagetllates
cells that are reinforced by cellulose plates. 2 flagella located in perpendicular grooves. spin as they move through the water
apicomplexans
parasites of animals and some cause serious human disease. spread through their host as tiny infectious cells.
ciliates
large, varied group of protists named for their use of cilia to move and feed.
distinctive feature: ciliates is the presence of two types of nuclei: tiny micronuclei and large macronuclei
strameophiles
group of marine algae that include some of the most important photosynthetic organisms on the planet, as well as several clades of heterotrophs
diatoms:
unicellular algae that have a unique glass-like wall made of hydrated silica ( silicon dioxide)
golden algae
results from their yellow and brown carotenoids. the cells of gold algae are typically biflagellated with both flagella attached near one end of he cell.
brown algae
largest and most complex algae. all are multicellular, and most are marine. many of the epsices are called "seaweeds".
alteration of generation
alteration of multicellular haploid and diploid forms
heteromorphic
sporophytes and gametophytes are structurally different
isomorphic
sporophytes and gametophytes look similar to each other, although they are different in chromosome numbers
froaminiferans
material made of calcium carbonate.
radiolarions
marine, engulfs smaller microorganisms that become attached to the psyedupodia
