Protist and Fungi
protist and fungi study guide
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 1) A type of protist that has two tails and includes organisms that can provide nutrients for corals as well as organisms that can cause toxic red tides is called a(n) | dinoflagellate |
| 2) According to RNA sequence analysis, green algae are most closely related to what? | plants |
| 3) Fungal cell walls are made of what? | chitin |
| 4) Giardia infections are the result of humans coming into contact with what? | Contaminated water |
| 5) How are fungus like protists like fungi? | They decompose |
| 6) In the paramecium, food is collected by cilia and swept into the what? | Oral groove |
| 7) Mushrooms are found in what group of fungi? | Club fungi |
| 8) Organisms that obtain food from decaying organic matter are called what? | saprobes |
| 9) Plantlike protists have what traits in common with plants? | Chlorophyll and photosynthetic |
| 10) Reproductive structures of fungi that grow above ground are called what? | Fruiting body |
| 11) Slime molds are funguslike protists, but they are not fungi. Why? | b/c they move and fungus don't |
| 12) The mycelium is made up of many what? | Hypha (many) |
| 13) The paramecium's cilia help the organism to do what? | Swim and capture food |
| 14) The process in which yeast reproduce by forming a daughter cell that is genetically identical but initially smaller in size is called what? | budding |
| 15) The small hair-like structures that some protists use for movement are called | cillia. |
| 16) What are general characteristics of fungi? | They are heterotrophic; they have cell walls; they are eukaryotic |
| 17) What are the three types of protists? | Plant-like; animal-like; funguslike |
| 18) What are the two organisms that compose lichen? | Algae and fungus |
| 19) What is hypha? | Root like structures of fungus that form the fruiting body and mycelium; absorb water and nutrients |
| 20) What protists use pseudopods? | amoeba |
| 21) What term is generally used to describe animal-like protest? | protozoa |
| 22) What type of fungi do you eat on pizza? | Club fungi |
| 23) When do these fungi normally switch from asexual to sexual reproduction? | During times of environmental stress |
| 24) Which fungal structures can grow to a vast size underground? | mycelia |
| 25) Which type of protist can make its own food | Plant-like protist |
| 26) Why are euglenoids considered plantlike and animal-like? | Photosynthetic and motile (move) |
| 27) With what organism do mycorrhizae form a symbiotic relationship? | Plant and fungi |
| - define a protist (1): | a protist is an organism that is not a plant, animal, or fungi but may have some of their characteristics |
| - describe the three categories of protists and how each group obtains food (1): | plantlike – autotrophs, chlorophyll, photosynthetic; animal-like – heterotrophic, obtain food from other organisms, can move; funguslike – decompose dead, decaying organisms for nutrients; also some can move |
| - explain how modern technology is likely to affect the kingdom Protista (1): | technology will affect Kingdom Protist as they examine further molecular differences in the protist that will allow them to more specifically differentiate them from one another and break them down into more specific groups |
