1
Q
systematics
A
study of evolutionary relationships among organisms
2
Q
Eukaryotic cells
A
- chromosomes consist of a very long, linear DNA molecule package w/ histone proteins and enclosed in a nucleus -have organelles -flagella and cilia, when present are made of the protein tubulin arranged in “9+2” microtubule arrays
3
Q
Prokaryotic cells
A
-a single chromosome w/ short, circular DNA. Histone proteins may/may not be present. Some cells contain plasmids -no nucleus -no organelles -flagella, when present, consist of the globular protein flagellin note: flagella use proton motive force to spin
4

make their own organic molecules; uses light or chemicals such as H2S, NH3, NO2-, NO3-
5
Q
photoautotrophs
A
use light energy
6
Q
chemoautotrophs
A
use energy obtained from inorganic substances (as in chemosynthesis). Examples of inorganic substances that are used: hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3), and other nitrogen compounds
7
Q
heterotrophs
A
obtain energy by consuming organic substances made by autotrophs; some heterotrophic organisms are parasites, saprobes (obtain their energy from dead matter)
8

11
Q
what are the 3 domains?
A
archaea, bacteria, eukarya
12
Q
Archaea groups (2. Extremophiles)
A
live in extreme environment; Halophiles (salt lover) high [salt] environment; most are aerobic and heterotrophic; others anaerobic and photosynthetic with pigment bacteriorhodospin. Thermophiles (heat lover) are sulfur-based chemoautotroph.
13

Archaea groups (1. methanogens)
A
obligate anaerobes that produce CH4as by-product of obtaining energy from H2 to fix CO2 (mud, guts)
14
Q
Archaea (similarities with eukaryotes)
A
- DNA of both archaea and eukaryotes are associated with histone; not bacterial DNA.
- Ribosome activity is not inhibited by antibiotics streptomycin and chloramphenicol unlike bacteria
15
Q
Archaea
A
prokaryotes; archaeal cell walls contain various polysaccharides, not peptidoglygan (as in bacteria), cellulose (as in plant), or chitin (as fungi).
Phospholipid components such as glycerol is different (isomer of either bacteria or eukaryotes). Hydrocarbon chain is branched (straight chain for others) and ether-linkages instead of ester-linkages.

18
Q
How are bacteria distinct from archaea and eukaryotes?

25
Kingdom Protista (protozoa, or animal-like protists)
hetertrophs; 1. Rhizopoda are amoebas that move by extensions of their cell body called pseudopodia. Pseudopodia encircle food and absorb it by phagocytosis 2. Foraminifera, or forams, have tests usually made of calcium carbonate. 3. Apicomplexans are parasites of animals. 4. Ciliates are distinguished by their cilia
26
apicomplexans
domain: eukarya, kingdom: protista animal parasites; they are characterized by an apical complex, a complex of organelles located at an end (apex) of the cell. They have no physical means of motility. However, they form spores which are dispersed by one or more hosts that participate in the completion of their life cycles. The sporozoan that causes malaria, for example, spends part of its life cycle in mosquitos and part in humans
27
ciliates
distinguished by their cilia, which they use for moving and other functions. Because of specialized structures, such as mouths, anal pores, contractile vacuoles (for water balance), two kinds of nuclei (one large macronucleus and several small micronuclei), and other features, they are perhaps the most complex of all cells. Paramecium is the phylum's most notable member
28
Kingdom Protista (fungus-like protists)
resemble fungi because they form either filaments or spore-bearing bodies similar to the fungi 1. cellular slime molds-exhibit both funguslike and protozoalike characteristics during their life cycle 2. Plasmodial slime molds grow as a single, spreading mass (or plasmodium) feeding on decaying vegetation 3. Oomycota include the water molds, downy mildews, and white rusts. They are either parasites or saprobes. The filaments lack septa, or they are coenocytic, containing many nuclei within a single cell.
29
Kingdom Fungi
fungi grow as filaments called **hyphae**. A mass of hyphae is called **mycelium**. Some fungi have septa, or cross walls, which divide the filament into compartments containing a single nucleus. When filaments lack septa, they are multinucleate, coenocytic. The cell walls of fungi consist of chitin, a nitrogen-containing polysaccharide
Fungi are either parasites/saprobes (decomposer) absorbing food products due to digestive enzymes.
30
haustoria
parasitic fungi have these hyphae that penetrate their host
31
Fungi sexual reproduction
1. **Plasmogamy**- fusing of cells from 2 different fungal strains to produce single cell w/ nuclei from both strains. A pair of haploid nuclei, one from each strain, is called a **dikaryon**. A hypha containing a dikaryon is called a dikaryotic hypha.
2. **Karyogamy**- fusing of 2 haploid nuclei of a dikaryon to form a single diploid nucleus.
3. **Meiosis**- of the diploid nucleus restores the haploid condition. Daughter cells develop into haploid spores, which germinate into haploid hyphae (has 1 fungal strain) =\> merge into dikaryon and repeat
32
fragmentation
the breaking up of hyphae
33
budding
the pinching off of a small hyphal outgrowth
34
stages of asexual reproduction
**fragmentation **(breaking up hyphae), **budding **(small hyphal outgrowth), **asexual spores** descibed as:
1. **sporangiospores**- produced in saclike capsules (**sporangia**) that are each borne on a stalk called a **sporangiospore**.
2. **conidia**- formed at the tips of specialized hyphae, not enclosed inside sacs. Hyphae bearing conidia are called **condiophores**; asexual reproduction .
35
What are the six fungus groups?
1. Zygomycota 2. Glomeromycota 3. Ascomycota 4. Basidiomycota 5. Deuteromycota 6. Lichens
36
zygomycota
lack septa, except when filaments border reproductive filaments.
* reproduce sexually by fusion of hyphae from different strains, followed by plasmogamy, karyogamy, and meiosis.
* Haploid zygospores are produced =\> germinate into new hyphae. Bread mold is a typical zygomycete
37
glomeromycota
lack septa, *do not produce zygospores*.
* small group that occur only in mutualistic associations w/ plant roots (mycorrhizae): plant (carbs), fungus (increases nutrient absorption, especially phosphorus)
38
ascomycota
septa; reproduce sexually by producing haploid **ascospores**. After plasmogamy of hyphae from different strains, dikaryotic hypha produces more filaments by mitosis; karyogamy and meiosis occurs in terminal hyphal =\> 4 haploid cells =\> mitosis to produce 8 haploid ascospores in a sac called **ascus**; grouped together into fruiting body **ascocarp** (yeast)
39
basidiomycota
septa, reproduce sexually by producing haploid **basidiospores**. Plasmogamy =\> mitosis =\> fruiting body (**basidiocarp**) such as mushroom; Karyogamy occurs in terminal hyphal cells called **basidia**, followed by meiosis to produce 4 haploid basidiospores.
40
deuteromycota
imperfect fungi, is an artificial group (no sexual reproductive cycle) has been observed. *Penicillium* is a deuteromycete, and produces penicillin.
41
lichens
mutualistic associations between fungi and algae (usually chlorophyta/cyanobacteria, provides sugar from photosynthesis); also provide Nitrogen if algae is nitrogen-fixing; fungus (ascomycete) provides water and protection (pigments from UV light, or toxic chemicals for grazers) from environment.
42

* anthophyta
* adaptations
67
Kingdom Plantae: Adaptations on land =\> **Dominant generation is diploid sporophyte generation**
dominant generation is diploid sporophyte generation (except primitive bryophytes- mosses, liverworts, and hornworts); provide two copies against genetic damage.
68

73
Kingdom Plantae: Bryophytes
mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. gametes are produced in **gametangia** (protective structures) on gametophytes, dominant haploid stage of life cycle of bryophytes. **Antheridium **(male gametangium) produces flagellated sperm that swim through water. **Archegonium **(female) produces egg. Zygote grows into diploid structure (still connected to gametophyte)
* In mosses, this structure is a stalk bearing capsule which contains haploid spores produced by meiosis =\> spores dispersed by wind and germinate grow into haploid gametophytes which produces antheridium + archegonium
* lacks true root, true leaves, true stems (lack vascular tissues); must remain in water.
74
tracheophytes

75
Kingdom Plantae: Lycophyta
club mosses, spike mosses, and quillworts (herbaceous plants): club and spike mosses produce clusters of spore-bearing sporangia in conelike structure **strobili**. Resurrection plant (recover from dead-appearance after watered, is spike moss)

77
What two plant divisions produce seeds?
Coniferophyta and Anthophyta; male spores and female spores; **microsporangia** produces **microspores** (male spores)and **macrosporangia **produce **macrospores **(female spores)
78
Seed plant reproduction summary
* _Microsporangium_: produces numerous **microspore mother cell**, which divide by meiosis to produce 4 haploid cells (microspores-male) =\> mature into **pollen grains** (represent gametophyte generation) which divides into 3 cells (in flowering plants) or 4 cells (in conifers).
* One is **vegetative** (tube) cell that controls growth of pollen tube, others=sperm
* _Megasporangium_: called **nucellus **produces **megaspore mother cell **=\> meiosis 4 haploid cells, 1 survives to become **megaspore** (female gametophyte generation). **Megaspore **=\> (mitosis) 1 egg (in flowering plants) or 2 eggs (in conifers). 1 to 2 tissue layers (**integuments**) surround megasporangium. **ovule ** (integument+nucellus+megaspore daughter cells); **microphyle** is opening through integuments for pollen access to egg.
* Once pollen grain contacts megasporangium, tube cell (of sperm) directs growth of **pollen tube** through the microphyle and toward the egg =\>fertilization (zygote) =\> embryo (beginning of sporophyte gen); integuments =\> **seed coat**
79
Kingdom Plantae: Coniferophyta
cone-bearing (pines, firs, spruces, junipers, redwoods, cedars); pollen-bearing male + ovulve bearing female cones; **gymnosperms** (naked seeds) are seeds produced in unprotected megaspores near surface of reproductive structure.
## Footnote
Fertilization and seed development requires 1-3 yrs.
80
Kingdom Plantae: Anthophyta (angiosperms)
flowering plants. Major flower parts:
1. Pistil: female reproductive strt. (3 parts: ovary, style, and stigma)
2. Stamen: male reproductive strt. (pollen bearing anther and stalk, filament)
3. Petals: also called sepals function to attract pollinators
Major evolutionary advancements: attracts pollinators (insects + birds); ovule protected inside ovary which develops into fruit =\> dispersal of seeds by wind or othe animals
81
Typical Fertilization in many Angiosperms
1. Pollen lands on sticky stigma (female). Pollen tube (elongating cell) that contains **vegetative nucleus **grows down the style toward an ovule; **2 sperm cells **inside pollen tube.
2. Ovule within ovary (consist of megaspore mother cell surrounded by nucellus + integuments). Megaspore mother cell =\> (meiosis) 4 haploid megaspores; one survives =\> (mitosis X 3) 8 nuclei =\> 6 nuclei undergoes cytokinesis and form plasma membranes (**embryo sac**). At the microphyle of embryo sac are 3 cells (**egg + 2 synergids**). At the other end of microphyle are **3 antipodal cells**. In the middle are **polar nuclei **(2 haploid cells)
3. Pollen tube (2 sperm cells) enters embryo sac through microphyle; 1 sperm cell fertilizes egg (form diploid zygote); nucleus of 2nd sperm fuses w/ both polar nuclei =\> triploid (3N) nucleus =\> (mitosis) **endosperm **(provide nutrient). **Double fertilization **(vegetative propagation) is fertilization of the egg and polar nuclei each by a separate sperm
