BIO 044 - Module 6 Flashcards
(40 cards)
Protoplasmic level
Mostly free living
Symbiotic to plants
Based on nutrition (plant-like and animal-like)
Protozoans/Protists
Can synthesize their own food
Autotrophs
Needs other organisms
Heterotrophs
Feed on particulate (solid food) acquired through phagocytosis
Phagotrophs/Holozoic Feeders
Ingest soluble (liquid food) through osmosis
Osmostrophs/Saprozoic Feeders
False feet
Pseudopodia
Similar morphologically
Cilia and flagella
Different Modes of Nutrition
-Autotrophs
-Heterotrophs
Can synthesize their own food
Autotrophs
From other organisms through ingesting food in a soluble or particulate form
Heterotrophs
Are heterotrophs that feed on particulate (solid) food that is acquired through phagocytosis
Phagotrophs/Holozoic feeders
Heterotrophs that ingest soluble (liquid) food through osmosis
Osmotrophs/Saprozoic feeders
Different Modes of Locomotion
-Cilia and Flagella
-Pseudopodia
Performed through “beatings”
Cilia and Flagella
Chief means of locomotion in amoebas
Pseudopodia
Primitive mouth
Cytosome
Containing food particles will be digested by
lysosomes
Vacoule
Means to eat
Phagocytosis
To drink
Pinocytosis
Exit
Exocytosis
Cell will simply divide by mitosis and results in 2 essentially identical individuals
Binary Fission
A progeny cell “the bud” is considerably smaller than the parent. It will late separate from the parent cell and grow to full size.
Budding
Form nuclear copies called “schizonts” before
splitting to simultaneously produce many identical individuals called “merozoites”
Multiple Fission/Schizonony
After a sexual reproductive stage; union of gametes before multiple fission/schizogony occurs.
Sporogony
