cell wall

describe a cell wall in a eukaryotic cell?

only in some eukaryotic microogranisms
fungi? Algae?

A
  • provides structural support and shape
  • fungi have thick inner layer of polysaccharide fibers composed of chitin or celluloseand a thin layer of glycan
  • Algae theories in chemical compositio, substance is commonly found in cellulose pectin, silicon dioxide, calcium carbonate

Q

Fungi

mold

A
  • multicellular
  • Long filamentous threads of fungi ate called hyphae produced by releasing spores
  • woven or interwining masses of hyphae are called mycelium

Q

fungi

yeasts

A
  • unicellular
  • asexual reproduction by producing buds
  • some have chains of buds attached in a row called pseudohyphae

some exist in both forms depending upon temperature

17
Q

fungi

what is fungi’s nutritional diet?

autotroph or heteotrophs

A
  • all fungi are heterotrophs ( do not produce their own food)
  • majority are harmless
18
Q

fungi

what is mycoses?

A

fungal infection

19
Q

asexual spore formation

what are sporangiospores?

A

formed by successive cleavages within a sac like head called sporangium

20
Q

asexual spore formation

what is conidiospores (conidia)?

A

free spores not enclosed by spore bearing sac

21
Q

sexual formation

how are spores produced sexually?

A

following fusion of two different strains in formation of sexual structure

22
Q

protozoa

what is the morphology of protozoa?

M, A, C, A

A
  • mastigophorans ( F)
  • amoebas (PP)
  • ciliophorans (C)
  • apicomplexans (NM)

moblity

23
Q

fungal classification

what are the diffrent phyla based upon the type of sexual reproduction?

Z, A, B, C

A
  1. phylum zygomycota
  2. ascomycota
  3. basidiomycota
  4. chytridomycota
24
Q

protozoa

what are the characteristics of ciliophora?

living? mobility?

A

-motile by cilia
- some have cilia for feeding an attachment most develop cyst

25
# protista what does the kingdom of Protista consist of?
- algae - protozoa
26
# Protista (algae) what is algae?
Eukaryotic organisms usually unicelluar and colonial that photosynthesizes with chlorophylla
27
# protists (algae) what are the characteristics of algae? | free living? unicellualr or multi? pigment?
- photosynthetic organisms - microscopic forms are unicellular, colonial and filamentous - most of free living - microscopic forms are colonial and multicellular - contains chloroplast with chlorophyll and other pigments - has a cell wall but may not have a flagella
28
# protozoa What are the characteristics of protozoa? | cellular? harm level? autotrophic or heterotrophic
- most are unicellular - most are harmless - some are animal parasites that can be spread by and insect vector - all are heterotrophic
29
# protozoa what are the characteristics of mastigophora ? | living? mobility? nucleus?
- flagella - single nucleus - free living
30
# protozoa what are the characteristics of amoebas? | living? mobility?
- pseudopods - asexual reproduction by fission -most amoebas are free living and not infectious
31
# protozoa what are the characteristics of apicomplexa? | living? mobility?
32
# parasitic helminths what are the characteristics of parasitic helminths? | cellular?
- multicellular - parasitize host tissues - have mouth parts for attachment
33
# parasitic helminths what are the major groups of parasitic helminths?
- flatworms - roundworms
34
# parasitic helminths what are the characteristics of flatworms? | shape? systems?
- flat with no digestive track or blood pouchs simple excretory and nervous system
35
# parasitic helminths what are the two subdivisions for flat worm? | C, T
- cestodes (tapeworms) - trematodes (flukes)
36
# parasitic helminths what are the characteristics of roundworms (nematods) | shape? systems?
- round, has a complete digestive track and a protective surface cuticle - has spines and hooks on the mouth - exrectory snd nervous system are poorly developed
37
# parasitic helminths what is the subdivision for roundworms? | PW
enterobius vermicularis (pin worm)
38
# parasitic helminths how are parasitic helminths acquired?
- through ingestion of larva or eggs and food from soil or water and some are cured by insect vectors
