Foraminiferansand Radiolarians • Heterotrophic single cells with chalky or glassy shells live in great numbers in the world’s oceans; cytoplasm extends through many pores

The Alveolates • Have a layer of sacs just under the plasma membrane • “Alveolus” means sac. • 3 Groups: • Ciliates • Dinoflagellates • Apicomplexans
Ciliates: Predator and Prey • Didinium

Bioluminescent Dinoflagellates Noctilucascintillans
Apicomplexans • Parasitic alveolates • Spend part of life cycle inside host cell • Named on complex of microtubules at the apical end that allows them to enter a host cell. • Sometimes called sporozoans • Ex. Plasmodium and Toxoplasmgondii
Toxoplasmosis gondii Dubey, J. P. 2006. http://www.parasitology.com.cn/UploadFile/200957135243451.JPG
Stramenopiles • Colorless filamentous molds, photosynthetic single cells, and large seaweeds belong to the stramenopile lineage • Name means “straw-haired” • Grouped according to gene sequence comparisons • 3 Groups: • Diatoms • Brown Algae • Water Molds
Brown Algae Macrocystis - Giant Kelp Fucus - bladderwrack
Parasitic Water Molds • Filaments of Saprolegnia infect fish in aquaria
