19.1 Diversity of Protists
Protists can be animal-like, plant-like, or fungus-like.
• Protists are eukaryotes that are not animals, plants, or
fungi.

19.1 Diversity of Protists
• Animal-like protists consume other organisms.
– aka: protozoans
– heterotrophs
– single-celled
– Some examples include:
– Pseudopods, flagellates, cilliates

19.1 Diversity of Protists
Animal-Like
Protista &
Disease• Malaria: Infected
mosquito bites
– Fever, vomiting,
coma, death
• Sleeping sickness: bite
of tsetse flies
– Coma & death

19.1 Diversity of Protists
• Plant-like protists are photosynthetic.
– Aka: Algae
– no roots, stems, or leaves
– Perform photosynthesis with chloroplasts
(seaweed, kelp)
– Example: Diatoms
– Glasslike shells
– Provide ~ ½ O2 on Earth

19.1 Diversity of Protists
Origins of Multicellularity
Live in 3 arrangements
• 1) Single-celled
• 2) Multicellular colonies; independent acting cells
– Over time, cells became somewhat specialized
• 3) Multicellular colonies; specialized cells
– Over time, cells dependent on others because of specialization
• Beginning of multicellular life???

19.1 Diversity of Protists
• Fungus-like protists decompose dead organisms.
– heterotrophs
– can move, whereas fungi cannot (spores develop cilia)
– Some examples include:
– Slime molds: very large (~1m) single celled mass of
cytoplasm.
– Water molds: can be parasitic, like the Potato Blight
(disease that caused the potato famine in Ireland)

19.1 Diversity of Protists
Protists are difficult to classify.
• Protista is one kingdom in the domain Eukarya.
• Protist classification will likely change.
– Some protists are not closely related.
– Molecular evidence supports reclassification.
