Q

PROTOCTISTS

A

protoctists/protoctist/protista

> 28k species

a eukaryotic organism that is neither a plant, animal, or fungi

  • EUKARYOTIC (DNA is in the nucleus membrane)
  • UNICELLULAR (individual / in colonies)
  • HETEROTROPHS
  • CHLOROPLASTS

lives in water / moist places

BACTERIA

A

~ more than every other kingdoms COMBINED

UNICELLULAR
HETEROTROPHS (no chloroplasts)

lives everywhere

can cause disease (eg. salmonella) or be helpful (helps us digest food in intestines)

Q

saprotrophs
