17
Q

heterotroph

A

ingest other organisms for food

18
Q

volvox protists

A

single cells can carry on life independently, clearly unicellular, clump together

19
Q

types of asexual reproduction

A
  • binary fission

- multiple fission or schizogany

20
Q

binary fission

A

from of mitotic division, nuclei divide

21
Q

multiple fission

A

also called schizogany, repeated nuclear divisions followed by simultaneous cytokinesis

22
Q

types of sexual reproduction

A
  • syngamy

- conjugation

23
Q

syngamy

A

fertilization of one haploid gamete by another

24
Q

conjugation

A

mutual exchange of genetic information, make nuclei and exchange info

25
types of protozoan movement
- cilia - flagella - pseudopodia
26
cilia
tend to move water past the organism
27
flagella
move organisms in the water (can have more than 1)
28
pseudopodia
- move cytoplasm in direction they want to move, and pull it in from behind - pseudo meaning false - pod meaning foot
29
protozoan excretion
- waste composed of nitrogenous material - simple diffusion from high to low concentration - end product id ammonia (NH3-)
30
osmosis
water moves form region of high water concentration to a region that contains low water concentration, moves towards solution with high solute concentration
31
osmoregulation
regulation of H2O
32
what is protozoans mechanism for osmoregulation?
contractile vacuoles
33
contractile vacuoles
pumps in H2 ions, water moves in to fill space, squeezes and pumps water out
34
what are the protozoan groups?
- flagellates - ciliates - amoebas - apicomplexans
35
Euglena
- type of flagellate - has pellicle - a flagella - has chlorophyll....therefore photosynthetic - contains stigma that detects light - autotrophic
36
trypanosoma
- type of flagellate - carreid by the tsetse fly sickle-shape cell with undulating membrane and flagellum - half of people who contract, die; 7-10000 cases - travels in blood - effects the CNS
37
volvox
- type of flagellate - multicellular - single colony can contain 50000 cells - contains flagella, chloroplast and stigma - asexual reproduction in daughter colonies (spring and summer) - sexual reproduction in zygotes - inversion
38
inversion
daughter colonies turn inside-out during development so flagella are on outside
39
microgametes
male
40
macrogametes
female
