Protists are unicellular organisms that have a nucleus.

Page 2: Kingdom protist  edited

Unicellular One of the first groups of living things on

Earth. (1.5 billion years ago.) Microscopic Can cause disease. Can be parasites

Page 3: Kingdom protist  edited

Has a nucleus. Live in watery environment. Generally live as individual cells. Protists vary greatly in appearance and

function.

I. Animal-like Protists II. Plant-like Protists. III. Fungus-like Protists.

Protozoan means “First Animal”. Cells contain a nucleus. Cells lack a cell wall. They are heterotrophs. Most can move on their own.

1. Sarcodines (SAHR-koh-dighnz) 2. Ciliates (SIHL-ee-ihts) 3. Flagellates (FLAJ- ehl-ihts) 4. Sporozoans (spohr-oh-ZOH-uhnz)

Commonly called amoeba Have pseudopods (Greek:“false

feet”) Pseudopods are used for movement

and to capture food.

Page 8: Kingdom protist  edited

Contractile Vacuoles: controls amount of water inside

Food Vacuole: where food is digested.

They feed on bacteria and other protoctists.

Phagocytosis

Page 11: Kingdom protist  edited

Am0ebas reproduce by dividing into two new cells (binary fission).

They are sensitive to light and some chemicals.

ENTAMOEBA HISTOLYTICA

is an example of a pathogenic amoeba that can produce ulcers on intestinal walls and cause amoebic dysentery in humans

Page 13: Kingdom protist  edited

Are protozoans that move about by means of numerous hairlike cilia..

Page 14: Kingdom protist  edited

Free swimming ciliates

Reproduce by bf and conjugation

Page 15: Kingdom protist  edited

Have a Flagellum: a long whip-like structure used for movement.

Many live in animals

Page 16: Kingdom protist  edited

Based on the term spore, the infectious form in which the organism is transmitted from one host to another.

Pass from one host to another. Pass from ticks, mosquitoes or other

animals to humans.

Page 17: Kingdom protist  edited

Unicellular and Multicellular Colonies (groups of unicellular protists) Can move on their own Autotrophs: make their own food

from simple materials using light energy (photosynthesis).

Pigments: chemicals that produce color

Page 18: Kingdom protist  edited

Euglenoids (yoo-GLEE-noydz) Diatoms (DIGH-ah-tahmz) Dinoflagellates (digh-noh-FLAJ-eh-layts) Red Algae Green Algae Brown Algae

Page 19: Kingdom protist  edited

Green Unicellular Live in fresh

water Autotrophs, but

can be heterotrophs under certain conditions.

Flagella Eyespot:

sensitive to light.

Page 20: Kingdom protist  edited

Unicellular 10,000 living

species. Aquatic Glass like cell

wall

Page 21: Kingdom protist  edited

Unicellular Cell walls are like

plates of armor. Two flagella Spins when it

moves. Colorful

(pigments) Can glow in the

dark. Causes Red Tide

Page 22: Kingdom protist  edited

Multicellular seaweeds

Live in deep ocean waters

Used for ice cream and hair conditioner

Used as food in Asia

Page 23: Kingdom protist  edited

Most are unicellular Some form colonies Few are

multicellular Can live in fresh

and salt water and on land in damp places.

Very closely related to green plants.

Page 24: Kingdom protist  edited

Commonly called seaweed

Can contain brown, green, yellow, orange and black pigments.

Attach to rocks Have air bladders Used as food

thickeners

Page 25: Kingdom protist  edited

Heterotrophs Have cell walls. Many have flagella and are

able to move at some point in their lives.

Page 26: Kingdom protist  edited

Live in water or moist places.

Tiny threads that look like fuzz.

Attack food crops Caused the Irish

Potato Famine.

Page 27: Kingdom protist  edited

Reproduce by Fruiting Bodies:

The Fruiting Bodies contain Spores.

At first they look like ameba, then later they look like mold.

Live on moist shady places.

Feed on bacteria and other microorganisms.
