1. All living things are made of cellsA cell is the smallest living unit that can carry out life processes

Living things can be 1 celled (unicellular)or more than 1 cell (multi-cellular)

CHARACTERISTICS OF LIVING THINGS (ORGANISMS)

PROTISTS

Complete the chart in the packet using the pages listed and the chart in the packet!!!!! We will use this chart to make a protist cube!!!!Plant-like (have chloroplasts)– Euglenoids

Arachebacteria Examples

This hot, sulfur-rich, acidic pool in Yellowstone National Park is home to species of Archea, 

including Sulfolobus.

Some archaens live 1000’s of miles deep in the ocean near superheated volcanic vents.

Examples of Eubacteria

E. Coli

Strep

Binary Fission

Bacteria help digest food

Anthrax

Blue green algae

Examples of Protists

Algae AmoebaParamecium

Volvox

Euglena Fission

Red algae

Stentor

Some organisms are made of only 1 cell (unicellular) Arachebacteria, Eubacteria and Protists• Unicellular Organisms make up most

of living organisms on Earth 2 Types of Protists

*Plant-like protistsMake their own food through photosynthesis

Classified by color*Animal-like protists

Cannot make their own foodClassified by how they move

STENTOR

TYPES OF PROTISTSSARCODINA (sarcodines)

Moves – pseudopod (fake foot)Eats - engulfs food with

pseudopod (consumer)Reproduces - asexual by binary fissionTraits – Some are parasites

Some have glass shells.

Foraminiferans with shellAmoeba feeding

TYPES OF PROTISTPARAMECIUM (Ciliates)

Reproduce – asexually by binary fission, sexually by conjugation

Food – Cilia sweeps the food into the oral groove (consumer)Moves–CiliaExamples – Paramecium, StentorTraits – synchronized swimmer

STENTORPARAMECIUM CONJUGATION

TYPES OF PROTISTS - Animal-likeZooflagellates (Trypanosoma and Trichomonas)

Moves – FlagellaReproduces – Binary fissionFood – takes in food (consumer)Examples –listed above and GiardiaTraits – some are parasites.

Giardia diarrhea

TrypanosomaAfrican Sleeping Sickness

TYPES OF PROTISTS

SPOROZOANS (Plasmodium vivaz, Gregarina)Food – Takes in food and many are parasites (consumer)Moves – NO MOVEMENT!!!!Reproduces – binary fission form sporesTraits – Causes severe disease

PLASMODIUMMALARIA GREGARINA

TYPES OF PROTISTS CHLOROPHYTA Color - Green Food – Makes its own food Reproduces – binary fission Example - Volvox

VolvoxVolvox Movement

TYPES OF PROTISTS CHRYSOPHYTA Color – golden-brown Food – Makes its own food Reproduces – binary fission Example – Diatoms Trait – glassy shells, so many of them in the ocean they are responsible for most of the oxygen in our atmosphere

TYPES OF PROTISTSPYRROPHYTA Bioluminescent Explained Color - red Food – Makes its own food Moves – 2 flagella Reproduces – binary fission Example – dinoflagellates (also called fire algae) Trait – causes red tide (poisons water),

bioluminescent (gives off light)

TYPES OF PROTISTSEUGLENOIDS

Food – Photosynthesis or traps food if no light. (consumer & producer)Moves – FlagellaColor- GreenReproduces –Binary FissionTraits -Eyespots for sensing light,in its own

group because both animal & plant-like
