Raczkowski- Protist
Raczkowski- Protist and Fungi
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Protist | belong to the kingdom Protista |
| Protist | are eukaryotic (have nucleus) |
| Protist | many single-celled, but some multicellular, both producers and consumers |
| Protist | classified by the way they obtain energy |
| Funguslike Protists | protist that obtains its food from dead organic matter or from the body of another organism |
| Funguslike Protists | Consumers that secrete digestive juices into the food source and then absorb the digested nutrients |
| Funguslike Protists | Examples- slime molds and water mold |
| Parasites | invade the body of another organism to obtain the nuitrients they need |
| Host | Organism a parasite invades |
| Algae | a type of plantlike protist, single-celled or multi-cellular (phytoplankton) |
| Algae | producer- uses sun’s energy to make food through photosynthesis |
| Algae | Example- seaweed or kelp |
| Phytoplankton | Producers that provide food for most other water-dwelling organisms |
| Phytoplankton | Produce most of the world’s oxygen |
| Phytoplankton | Single-celled, cannot be seen without a microscope |
| Phytoplankton | Types- red algae, brown algae, green algae, diatoms, dinoflagellates, euglenoids |
| Protozoa | animal protists that are single-celled consumers |
| Protozoa | some are parasites and some move |
| Protozoa | Types- amoeba-like protists, flagellates, ciliates, and spore- forming protists |
| Fungus | eukaryotic consumers that come in a variety of sizes, shapes and colors |
| Fungus | some are decomposers, but most are consumers who most obtain nutrients by secreting digestive juices onto a food source, then absorbing the dissolved substances. |
| Fungus | Some are single-celled but most are multicellular |
| Mold | shapeless fuzzy fungi that can reproduce asexually |
| Hyphae | fungal filaments that are similar to plant roots |
| Hyphae | Cells having openings in their cell walls that allow cytoplasm to move freely between the cells |
| Mycelium | hyphae that have grown together to form a twisted mass |
| Spores | - small reproductive cells protected by a thick cell wall |
| Spores | a way in which asexual reproduction occurs |
| Spores | light and easily spread by the wind |
| Lichen | a combination of a fungus and an alga that grows intertwined |
| Lichen | Producers that produce food through photosynthesis |
| Lichen | Need only air, light and minerals to grow |
| Autotroph | any organism capable of producing its own food by using inorganic materials as a source of nutrients and using photosynthesis as a source of energy, as most plants and certain bacteria and protists |
| Heterotroph | An organism that cannot manufacture its own food and instead obtains its food and energy by taking in organic substances, usually plant or animal matter |
