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
|
