| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are the characteristics for the kingdom Protista? | Eukaryotic, single celled, Can be a autotroph or a heterotroph, Can be Plant-like, Animal-like, or Fungus-like. |
| What is a protist? | An organism with eukaryotic single cells or colonies (multicellular), Laking tissues and eats, makes, or decomposes its food. WIDE variety or shapes and colors. |
| What are plant-like protists? | photosynthetic but no roots stems or leaves. |
| What are animal-like protists (protozoans)? | They move, eat food, and some use the sun AND eat food. |
| What are fungus-like protists? | Get energy from decomposing |
| Can you name 10 protists? | Spirogyra, Diatoms, Dinoflagellates, Euglenoid, Ameba, Parameciums, Slime Molds, Water Molds, Euglena, Blepharisma. |
| What is a fungi? | A Eukaryotic Heterotrogh, that have rigid cell walls and no chlorophyll. |
| How do fungi get their nutrients? | Most are decomposers, some are parasites. |
| What is the relationship between A tree and a Fungus called? | mycorrhiza |
| What are hyphe (singular hypha)? | a nonreproductive filament of a fungus |
| What is mycelium? | A mass if fungal filaments, or hyphae, that forms the body of a fungus. |
| What is a spore? | A reproductive cell or multicellular structure that is resistant to stressful environment conditions and that can develop into an adult without fusing with another cell |
| What are the 4 groups of fungi? | Threadlike, Sac, Club, and imperfect fungi |
| Where do most threadlike fungi live? | Underground and are decomposers |
| What is the biggest group of fungi? | Sac Fungi |
| How do yeasts reproduce? | Budding |
| What are the characteristics for the kingdom plante? | Photosynthesis (Autotrophic), Cuticles, Cell walls made of cellulose, Multicellular, Eukaryotic, Chloroplast, Chlorophyll, Lack the power of locomotion, Produce Embryos |
| What is an embryo? | young plant that develops inside |
| What is a nonvascular plant? | Plants without tubes to transport water so must live near water |
| What is a vascular plant? | Plants with tubes to transport water |
| How do nonvascular plants reproduce? | With spores |
| How vascular plants reproduce? | Using Seeds, but some are seedless so they use spores |
| What is one example of a seedless vascular plant? | A fern |
| What are the 2 types of vascular plants that use seeds? | Gymnosperm and Angiosperm. |
| What do Angiosperms use to reproduce? | Flowers |
| What do Gymnosperms use to reproduce? | Cones |
| What is the Phloem? | A tube in a vascular plant that carries food . |
| What is the Xylem? | A tube in a vascular plant that carries water. |
| What are the three types of asexual reproduction in plants? | Plantlets, Tubers, and Runners |
| Describe a plantlet. | Tiny plants that grow along the edges of a plant's leaves |
| What is a Flower? | The reproductive part of a angiosperm that produces the seed. |
| Describe a Tuber. | Underground stems that can produce new plants after a dormant season |
| Describe a runner. | Above ground stems from which a new plants can grow. |
