Are eukaryotes animals? Why or why not?
No, they are animal-like because they lack a cell wall (like plants), have at least one motile stage in the life cycle, and most ingest their food.

Almost all modern day eukaryotes have mitochondria and are aerobic (use oxygen)
What do protists live?
Anywhere there is moisture!

Marine, freshwater, soil, inside animals, etc
How do protists feed?
Heterotrophic- phagocytosis (engulf visible particles), pinocytosis (take in fluid droplets by a process of channel formation)
How can protists reproduce?
Asexual: binary fission (dividing into two identical organisms), multiple fission (more than two created all at once), budding (a little guy grows up into an identical organism)

Sexual: conjugation followed by fission

Locomotory structures:
Reproduction:
Identify: Phylum Ameba (Amoeba)

Habitat: Everywhere
Feeding: Phagocytosis
Locomotory structures: pseudopodia
Reproduction: binary fission
What is osmoregulation and how do you identify it?
rids an ameoba of excess water

the contractile vacuole (a clear bubble w/o particles) swells with fluid and then pops and disappears.
What are foraminiferans?
marine amebas that secrete a skeleton of one or more chambers with long delicate pseudopodia that extend through the pores
What are heliozoans?
actinopod amebas...look like a sunburst
What are radiolarins?
marine actinopod amebas...w/ a transparent skeleton of silica
What is a pellicle? what type of protist has it?
protective but flexible body covering found on a euglena
