CHAMPS • Conversation – None at all • Help/Questions – Raise your hand • Activity – Taking notes on Protist Kingdom • Movement – None at all • Participation – Everyone takes notes and is quiet Kingdom Protists Before We Start….. • Are protists unicellular or multicellular? • Do protists have a nucleus? Protist Reproduction • Congjuation • Asexually by mitosis • Sexually using gametes Classification of Protists • Protists are classified by the way they obtain food. • 3 groups of Protists: – Animal-like – Plant-like – Fungus-like Animal Like Protists • • • • Consume other organisms for food Known as protozoan (“first animals”) Move around to find food Ex: Amoeba, Paramecium Plant Like Protists • Produce their own food using chlorophyll and photosynthesis. • Ex: Euglena, Algae Fungus Like Protists • Consume dead or decaying matter • Called slime molds or water molds Types of movement • Flagella- whip like structure that propel a cell to move • Psuedopod- “false foot” projection of the cytoplasm • Cilia- hair like projection Feeding Structures • Contractile vacuolecavity used to collect water and remove it from the cell. • Food vacuole- cavity used that temporality stores food. • Oral groove- used to take in food. Diseases • Malaria- carried by Plasmodium on a mosquito. 1. An infected mosquito bites a human. 2. The mosquitoes saliva which has the Protist, gets into the humans blood. 3. The Protist infects the human liver cells and red blood cells, where it multiplies quickly. 4. This causes the RBC’s to burst and release more protists. Questions
