Nucleus has single copy of each chromosome
Haploid
Nucleus has 2 sets of each chromosome, 1 from female and 1 from male`
Diploid
The cell duplicates its 2 copies of DNA then divides to form 2 identical daughter cells from a single diploid cell, each being diploid
Mitosis
Cell Division creating 4 different daughter cells from a single diploid cell, each being haploid
Meiosis
Reproduction involving multinucleate schizont releasing numerous uninucleate daughter cells called merozoites
Schizogony
The motile, feeding reproductive state
Trophozite
Once a cyst is ingested by a host, they become tropozoites and begin feeding and reproducing
Encystment
transformation of a trophozoite into a cyst before leaving in feces to infect new hosts
excystment
Classification of Protoza are formerly divided into 4 groups based on locomotion are:
Sarcodina (pseudopods)
Mastigophora (flagellates)
Ciiophora (ciiates)
Sporozoa (nonmotile, apicomplexans)
No true shape, move with pseudopods (false feet) like a phagocyte
Pseudopods
possess flagella, whip-like appendages for movement (produce red tide, some are poisonous) and trichomonas a sexually transmitted disease causing vaginitis
Flagellates
Uses hair like cilia for movement
Ciliates
non-motile protozoans
Apicomplexans
Fungi have cell walls composed ______, which is nitrogenous
Chitin
Some fungi, about 30% produce ______, fungal diseases, like athlete's foot
diseases
The vegetative or nonreproductive body of a fungus
Thallus
fungi that produce both yeast like and mold like types of thalli
Dimorphic
Have small, globular, single cell thalli
Yeasts
Have long, branched, tubular filaments making up their thalli
Molds
the long tubular filaments are called what
hyphae
Hyphae are two types. One is divided into cells by crosswalks or septa
Septate
One hyphae is not divided it is just one long multinucleate hyphae
aseptate
The thallus of a mold is composed of many hyphae intertwined forming a tangled mass called______
Mycelium
Most fungi are _______, they absorb nutrients from the remains of dead animals
Saprobes
_______ are modified hyphae which can penetrate the tissue of live hosts and withdraw nutrients
Haustoria
Molds reproduce asexually by producing ________, able to be dispersed by the winds
lightweight spores
Not Divided Means
Coenocytic
Some species of fungi create a series of buds attached together and forming a long filament called a _______
Pseudohypha
Zygomycota are mostly saprobes, but some are obligate parasites of insects and other fungi. Sexually reproduce
Zygosporangia
Ascomycota "sac fungi" sexually produce haploid _____ within sacs called asci
Ascospores
Basidiomycota "club fungi" - fruiting bodies are called
basidiocarps (example Mushrooms)
Partnerships between fungi and photosynthetic microbes like green algae or cyanobacteria are called
Lichens
The ______ are a major part of phytoplankton(free floating food in ocean) their cell walls are composed of silica and so are used in polishes, detergents, paint removers, pool filters and firebricks
Diatoms
What are unicellular and multicellular protozoa, fungi, algae, eater and slime molds
Eukaroytic microbes
