Module 3 Review Exploring Creation with Biology

QuestionAnswer
What are the phyla of subkingdom Protozoa? Sarcodina-(Amoeba) Mastigophora-(Euglena) Sporozoa-(Plasmodium) Ciliophora-(Paramecium)
What are the phyla of subkingdom Algae? Chlorophyta-(Cosmarium) Chrysophyta-(Diatoms) Pyrrophyta-(Peridinium) Phaeophyta-(Macrocystis) Rhodophyta-(Corallina)
Which of the following genera contain organisms with chloroplasts? Amoeba, Euglena, Paramecium, Spirogyra Euglena and Spirogyra
What is the function of a contractile vacuole? Collects and releases excess water in the cell to reduce pressure in the cell.
What is the function of a food vacuole? Stores food while it is being digested.
What is endoplasm? Endoplasm is thick cytoplasm in the central area of the cell.
What is ectoplasm? Ectoplasm is cytoplasm near the cell wall; it is thin and watery.
What is the locomotion of an amoeba? Pseudopods
What is the locomotion of a euglena? Flagellum
What is the locomotion of a paramecium? Cilia
Name three pathogenic organisms from kingdom Protista. Entamoeba histolytica-(dysentery) Trypanosoma-(sleeping sickness) Balantidium coli-(dysentery) Plasmodium-(malaria) Toxoplasma-(toxoplasmosis)
What is the locomotion of phylum Sarcodina? Pseudopods
What is the locomotion of phylum Mastigophora? Flagella
What is the locomotion of phylum Ciliophora? Cilia
What is the main characteristic that is used to separate organisms into the phylum Sporozoa? They form spores as a natural part of their life cycle.
What type of symbiosis is represented by a tapeworm? Parasitism
What type of symbiosis is represented by Trichonympha living in termites? Mutualism
What is the purpose and names of the two nuclei in ciliates? Macronucleus: metabolism Micronucleus: reproduction
What is different about paramecia conjugation compared to bacterial conjugation? The paramecia mutually exchange DNA, whereas in bacteria only one receives new DNA.
What is unique about the way a euglena obtains food? It uses a combination of autotrophic and saprophytic methods.
Which phylum contains organisms responsible for most photosynthesis on Earth, and what common name is used for them? Phylum Chrysophyta diatoms

What are large deposits of diatom remains called? Diatomaceous earth-- Used as abrasives (toothpaste) and filters (pools or industry)
What is a red tide? An Algae bloom of dinoflagellates from phylum Pyrrophyta
Which two phyla principally contain macroscopic algae? Phaeophyta and Rhodophyta
What substance from members of the phylum Phaeophyta is used for thickening? Alginic acid (algin)
Kingdom Protista is divided into what two main groups? subkingdom Protozoa subkingdom Algae

What genus from phylum Sporozoa causes malaria and how is it transmitted? Plasmodium-- transmitted by mosquitos
What is an algal bloom? When algae reproduce so rapidly that they take over their habitat.
