BIO MIDTERM 2

QuestionAnswer
Excavata synapomorphies feeding groove loss of mitochondria in some
Rhizaria synapomorphies no cell wall thread like pseudopodia elaborate 'shells'
some Alveolata are capable of biolumenscence
Stramenpila synapomorphies flagella with hair-like projections
Toxoplasmosis Alveolata Cat poo fecal oocysts -food/pigcat-human neurological or muscular
Red Tides Alveolata Dinoflagellates deplete oxygen, neurotoxins contaminate shellfish humans-neuro, speech, limb function
Malaria Alveolata, plasmodium sp. mosquito saliva, infect liver and then blood cells, bursting flu-like symptons, diarrhea
Giardia Excavata freshwater big time diarrhea
Brain Eating Amoeba Excavata Water gets up nose into brain
African Sleeping sickness Excavata-(Trypanosoma) tsetse fly bites fever-neuro-death
Chagas disease Excavata kissing bug swelling of eyes or lips heart infection up to 30 years later
Leishmaniasis Excavata sandfly saliva infect blood of mammals and then more insects
3 types of leishmaniasis cutaneous (skin) visceral(liver) mucocutaneous (mucus membrane)
non vascular plants are ex. mosses gametophyte dominant
seedless non-vascular plants are ex. ferns sporophyte dominant
seed plants ex. gymnosperm and angiosperm sporophyte dominant conifers, cycads, gnetophytes, ginkophytes
5 major obstacles to life on land: 1. control water loss 2. intense sunlight (UV) 3. growing upright despite gravity 4. reproducing without water 5. moving around
all (angio, gymno, monilophytes, mosses) control water loss with cuticle, gas exchange and water control with guard cells on spores and stomata spores with sporopollenin
sporopollenin coats spores and pollen and protects from drying out
Flavonoids absorb UV radiation and protect DNA, also used for pigment
the first land plants were mosses
monilophytes, gymnosperms, angiosperms grow upright with vascular tissue
monilophytes have vascular tissue and lignin
angiosperms have vascular tissue and vessel elements
moss gamete container, female and male houses? gametangia archegonia antheridia
how do moss 'move around' spores blow in the wind
four main synapomorphies of land plants cuticle, alternation of generations, flavonoids, stomata with guard cells
gymno and angiosperms reproduce without water using pollen tube
angiosperms 'move around' when animals move pollen and fruit/seeds
gymnosperms 'move around' when microspores(pollen) blows in the wind
differentiate between tracheids and vessel elements tracheids have gaps in end through only secondary wall(lignin) vessel elements have gaps in end through lignin and cellulose walls
xylem water
phloem sugar
homospory ferns spores make a gametophyte that produces both eggs and sperm
heterospory pince tree produces microscpore/male gametophyte/pollen AND megaspore/female/ ovules
ovule contain megasporangia contain mother cell(n)
three parts of seed embryo(2n) nutritive tissue seed coat
cycads dioecious large compound megaphylls
ginkos dichotemously branching leaves dioecious no cones fleshy seeds
conifers monoecious male cones and female cones same tree
gnetophytes stupid looking long leaves Dioecious in common with angiosperms: vessel elements and double fertilization
all gymnosperm have pollen vascular tissue
angiosperms synapomorphy vascular tissue, fruit
monocots straight veins, petals x3
eudicots branching veins, petals x4 or x5
in double fertilization pollen tube grows down style and 2 sperm cells go, one fertilizes egg and forms zygote, the other creates 3n endosperm (nutritive tissue)
ovary becomes fruit
ovules become seeds
trends in plant evolution sporophyte dominance, cuticle, flavonoids, reproduction without water, more efficient dispersal, tracheids-vessel elements
Besides Giardia, who has two nuclei Paramecium (two diff sizes) Plasmodial slime mold(millions) Ciliates(two diff sizes) (All Alveolates)
Euk Synapomorphies Membrane Bound Nucleus Membrane bound organelles More than one chromosome, Linear
Profilin essential for complex cell structure and dynamics in eukaryotes- found in Asgard Archaea big deal
what hypothesis explains the presence of mitochondria in eukarya endosymbiosis hypothesis
explain endosymbiosis hypothesis Asgard Archaean engulfed a bacteria the bacteria gave host cell atp and the host cell gave bacteria carbon and protection
which features of the mitochondria support the idea that it came from an engulfed bacterium? the mitochondria replicates by fission, has its own circular DNA
Mitochondrial DNA is closely related to a-proteobacteria
Evidence of Chloroplasts in Plantae coming from bacteria replicate by fission singular circular DNA bound by double membrane genome similar to cyanobacteria
5 major innovations of Eukaryotic cells Multicelularity diverse cell supports Ingestion of food Sexual reproduction- red queen, changing environment Ploidy levels Mitosis and Meiosis New modes of Movement
Red Queen hypothesis sexual reproduction creates more diversity in a species, increases the chance of surviving parasites, predators
Changing Environment hypothesis Sexual reproduction is favored because it creates genetic variation, which helps populations adapt to unpredictable or changing environments
Ploidy levels across domains? Bac and arch are haploid Euk can be all three
motility in bacteria and archaea? swimming and gliding are common, or nonmotile
foraminiferans are rhizarians with outsides made of CaCO3
radiolarians are rhizarians with outside made of silica
water molds are in what clade stramenopila (flagella w/ "hairs")
Name Bikonta lineages SARPE
Name Unikonta Lineages OA
Name bikonta lineages with major parasites Alveolata and excavata
What single celled eukaryote causes Malaria? which clade? what human cells are affected? Plasmodium, Alveolata, liver cells- blood
what feature defines plantae? chloroplasts via 1st degree endosymbiosis
who has gametangia? Moss, ferns, gymnosperms
Do flowers have gametangia? No
Plants and algae with chloroplasts fix atmospheric CO2 through photosynthesis
homospory (one-spore). sporophyte produces one spore type, spore will develop into gametophyte with both sex gametes ex. ferns and mosses
monoecious male and female reproductive structures are on one plant
who is responsible for sudden oak death and irish potato blight stramenopila
Is pine tree heterosporous or homosporous heterosporous (producing two types of spores: large female megaspores and small male microspores)
Is pine tree monoecious or dioecious monoecious (having male and female reproductive parts on the same individual plant)
whats larger, the megaspore or the female gametophyte or the egg megaspore includes the female gametophyte which forms eggs
order: microspores, pollen, male gametophyte Stamens produce and hold the microspores, which become pollen(which contains the male gametophyte)
Do angiosperms have gametangia No, the gametophyte is made inside the spore Male gametophyte = pollen grain ā€ƒā†’ makes sperm inside itself (no antheridia)
