Protists
What Is a Protist
Plantlike Protists
Fungus-like Protists
Animal-Like Protists
not classified as animals, plants, or fungi.
most are unicellular
Some are multi cellular
Some are autographs and some are heterotrophs
Some can't move, some can
Like animals, animal-like protists are heterotrophs, and most are able to move from place to place to obtain food.
Protozoans With Pseudopods
Protozoans With Flagella
Protozoans that are parasites
Protozoans With Cilia
unicellular
Cilia is a hairlike projections from cells that move with a wavelike motion.
Pseudopods are temporary bulges of the cell.
Sweeps food into the organism
Pseudopods form when cytoplasm towards one location and the rest of the organism follows
Symbiosis is a close relationship in which at least one of the species benefits.
When both partners benefit from living together, the relationship is a type of symbiosis called mutualism
Parasites usually have more that one host
Parasites can spread diseases
(Algae)
Green algae
Diatoms
Brown algae
Dinoflagellates
Red algae
Euglenoids
live in most surroundings
Algae are autotrophs
Pigments are chemicals that produce color. Depending on their pigments algae can be green, yellow, red, brown, orange, or even black
Unicellular
Glasslike cell walls
Food source for heterotrophs in the water
Unicellular
variety of colors
glow in the dark
Green, unicellular algae that are found mostly in fresh water.
Heterotrophs when sunlight is not present
multicolored seweed
sometimes 260 below the ocean's surface
Some people eat this because it's nutritious
Either live in fresh water or salt water
Similar to plants on land
plantlike structures
Live in cool, rocky waters
Some people eat brown algae
A Spore is a tiny cell that is able to grow into a new organism
Slime molds
Water Molds and Downy Mildews
Like fungi, fungus-like protists are heterotrophs have cell walls, and use spores to reproduce.
Live on forest floors, and other moist, dark places
Some are microscopic and others are meters long
They join together so they get bigger
live in water or moist places
look like fuzz
They attack many food crops
