  1. Protists and FungiNotes pg 93

  2. There are 2 kinds of protists: • Animal-like: protozoa • Plant-like: protophyta

  3. In your notes, write down 2-3 examples of protozoa and 2-3 examples of protophyta

  4. Protozoa - Diatoms

  5. Protozoa - Dinoflagellates

  6. Protozoa - Ameoba

  7. Protozoa - Rotifer

  8. Protophyta – Plant-like protists • SOME plant-like protists are Multi-celled • Such as algae

  9. Protophyta – brown algae

  10. Protophyta – Red algae

  11. Protophyta – Green algae

  12. You use algae every day! • Ceramics • Floor polish • Laxatives • Cosmetics • Laundry starch • Hair products • Agar Ice cream Salad dressing Jelly beans Latex paint Penicillin Paper Textiles Toothpaste

  13. Pg 92

  14. Fungi – pg 93 continued • There are many different types of fungi • Most of them are decomposers = they break down & feed off of dead and decaying material.

  15. Some fungi are useful • Eat them • Used to make anti-biotics – pennicillin • Yeast – used to make bread and beer

  16. ALGAE Protista Kingdom:

  17. What do you know about Protists?

  18. DiatomsPhylum: Bacillariophyta The largest group of protists Make a wall of silica Found mostly in cold marine habitats Look like little boxes with lids Photosynthetic

  19. Diatomaceous earth Used in sugar refining Swimming pool filters Silver and other metal polishes, toothpaste, and paint that reflects light Insulation around blast furnaces and boilers Construction panels in prefabricated housing

  20. DinoflagellatesDivision: Dinophyta Two distinct flagella Photosynthetic Cause of harmful algal blooms The sudden multiplication of dinoflagellates Commonly called Red Tide

  21. RED TIDES Sudden, rapid growth of dinoflagellates Poisons and kills fish- very harmful to the fishing industry. Accumulate in shellfish Toxins can be fatal: Symptoms may begin with tingling in the limbs, then paralysis of the diaphragm which leads to suffocation. Other symptoms may include amnesia, muscular paralysis, hallucinations, diarrhea, or abdominal cramps.

  22. Brown AlgaePhylum: Phaeophyta Found mostly in cold ocean water Giant kelp forests are brown algae Usually reach about 100 feet Largest: 900 feet Can regenerate their blades

  23. Red Snow Caused by an algae called Chlamydomonasnivalis It is a green algae with a secondary carotenoid pigment that protects the chloroplast from UV radiation

  24. Ice Cream A gum extracted from the algae called carrageenan is put in most ice creams The algae loves water- it ties up the water in the ice cream making it thick and smooth instead of thin and runny Only a half-teaspoon is used in a half gallon of ice cream
