WCHS Zoology Chapter 8 Protozoan classification

Protozoan ClassSummary
Kingdom Protista Single-celled eukaryotes
Subkingdom animal-like protistans
Phylum Sarcomastigophora Protozoa that prossess flagella, pseudopodia, or both for locomotion and feeding; single type of nucleus. About 18,000 species
Subphylum Mastigophora One or more flagella for locomotion; autotropic, heteroropic, or saprozoic.
Class Phytomastigophorea Chloroplasts usually present; mainly autotrophic, some heterotrophic; Euglena, Volvox, Chlamydomonas
Class Zoomastigophorea lack chloroplasts; hertotrophic or saprozoic.Trypanosoma, trichonympha, trichomonas, giardia, leishmania
SubphylumSarcodina pseudopodia for movement and food gathering; naked or witrh shell or test; mostly free living
Superclass Rhizopoda Lobopodia, fliopodia, reticulopodia, or no distinct pseudopodia. Amoeba, entamoeba, naegleria, arcella, difflugia, foraminiferrans (gumbelina) about 4,000 species.
superclass Actinopoda spherical, planktonic; axopodia supported by microtubules; includes marine radiolarians with siliceous test and freshwater heliozoans (actinophrys; about 3,000 species.
Subphylum Opalinata Cylindrical; covered with cilia. Opalina, zelleriella
Phylum Labyrinthomorpha trophic stage as ectoplasmic network with spindle-shaped or spherical, nonamoeboid cells; saprozoic and parasitic on algae and seagrass; mostly marine and esturine. Labyrinthula
Phylum Apicomplexa Parasitic with an apical complex used for penetrating host cells; cilia and flagella lacking, except in cretain reproductive stages; the gregarines (monocystis), coccidians (emeria, isospora, sarcocystis, toxoplasma), plasmodium, about 5,500 species.
phylum Microspora Unicellular spores; intracellular parasites in nearly all major animal groups. the microsporeans (nosema) aobut 850 species.
Phylum Acetospora Multicelluar spore; all parasitic in invertebrates. the acetosporans (paramyxa, haplosporidium)
phylum myxozae spores of multicellular origin; all parasitic, the myxozoans (myxozoma) about 1,250 species.
Phylum Ciliophora Protozoa with simle or compound cilia at some stage ini the life history; heterotrophs with a well-developed cytostome and feedign organelles; at least one macronucleus and one micronucleus present. paramecium, stentor, euplotes, vorticella, balantidium,

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
