Animal-Like Protists

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Mastigophora   group of animal-like protists that are commonly known as flagellates and move by their flagella, an example is trypanosoma  
🗑
Sarcodina   group of animal-like protists that are commonly known as sarcodines, they move by pseudopods (false feet) and an example is the amoeba  
🗑
Ciliophora   group of animal-like protists that are commonly known as ciliates, move by using their cilia, and an example is a paramecium  
🗑
Sporozoa   group of animal-like protists that are commonly known as sporozoans, they do not move, an example is a plasmodium  
🗑
Flagellates   type of protists that are characterized by their specialized flagella  
🗑
Autotrophs   organisms that use nonliving energy sources, usually chemical or light, to create and store their own energy, mainly through photosynthesis  
🗑
Heterotrophs   organisms that depend upon organic compounds produced by autotrophic organisms for their source of energy, we are examples of this group  
🗑
Pseudopods   extensions from the cytoplasm of some protozoa, which are used for feeding and locomotion  
🗑
Sarcodine   type of protist that is characterized by its lack of rigidity, allowing it to change shape freely  
🗑
Phagocytosis   process of feeding in which the cell’s protoplasm surrounds a food source and encloses it in a food vacuole where it is digested  
🗑
Axopods   needle-like pseudopodium present in some types of sarcodines  
🗑
Ciliates   type of protist characterized by numerous cilia and trichocysts  
🗑
Cilia   hair-like structures used by ciliates for locomotion and feeding  
🗑
Trichocysts   specialized organelle that ciliates use to anchor themselves and to capture and/ or immobilize food  
🗑
Conjugation   reproductive process that takes place in many microscopic organisms, mainly protists and fungi  
🗑
Sporozoa   parasitic protozoa that cause numerous diseases in animals, including humans  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
