Other: trichothallic meristem (at the base of hair) which produces a pseudoparenchymatous uniaxial thallus

** only pseudoparenchymatous brown

Plurilocular: found in Ectocarpales

-Plurilocular gametangia that release hundreds of isogametes

- each gametophyte (plant) are N and produce gametes by mitosis

Unilocular: found in Ectocarpales-Unilocular sporangia with 2N cells that undergo meiosis to produce unicellular N zoospores

- borne on the diploid plant

- this thallus is called the sporophyte

- the meitotically produced zoospores grow by mitosis into gametophytes

CRYPTOPHYTA

Characteristics• NUCLEUS- Eukaryotic- Uninucleate

• COLOUR- Red- Tan- Blue-green- olive

• FLAGELLATION- 2 similar flagella both with mastigonemes- Flagella are apical or lateral and originating within a

groove

• MORPHOLOGY- Unicellular

• REPRODUCTION- Vegetative: by cell division- Sexual: not well known

• LIFE HISTORY- Not well known

• CHLOROPLAST- 1 to 2 smooth chloroplasts- Thylakoids usually in stacks of 2- Chlorophylls a and c- Phycobilins present- Chloroplast DNA in scattered nucleoids- 4 membranes around chloroplast- Eyespots when present are within the chloroplast but

not associated with the flagella

• OTHER- Have protein plates that act as an anchoring system

and is internal to the plasma membrane- Ejectosomes line the gullet- Storage product is starch and is stored outside the

chloroplast envelope, inside the PER

ejectosomes

Plastids

A Cryptophyte eyespot-These eyespots may be one or several layers thick- they are located with in the chloroplast but not close to the flagella- the eyespot operates by either intercepting light (shading) or reflecting light (increasing the illumination) onto the photoreceptor pigment- which is probably localized in either the plasma membrane or chloroplast membranes over the eyespot

-The large ejectosomes seen here line the wall of the gullet-Part of a smaller ejectosome is visible just beneath the plasmalemma on the lower left side of the cell

other- One is flattened and wraps around the cell- Other flagellum trails behind
