CHAPTER 28 THE ORIGINS OF EUKARYOTIC DIVERSITY
The Kingdom Protista Problem Several diverse lineages were combined to form the Protista making it a paraphyletic taxon
A model for the Origin of Eukaryotes including the Endosymbiotic hypothesis
Secondary Endosymbiosis gives the algae their diversity Studies of SSU-rRNA indicate that mitochondria evolved from ancestors of alpha proteobacteria and chloroplasts evolved form ancestors of cyanobacteria
Traditional hypothesis for how the Alternative hypothesis three domains of life are related based on based on proteins functioning in DNA sequences transcription and translation
“Tentative” phylogeny of Eukaryotes
A diplomonad-multiple flagella, two nuclei, no plastids or mitochondria
Parabasalids-no mitochondria have an undulating membrane trichomonads
Kinectoplastids Trypanosoma causes African Sleeping Sickness
Kinectoplastids a large organelle with DNA- Trichonympha- flagellated protozoan found in the gut of termites
Apicomplexa-Sporozoans The two host life cycle of Plasmodium that causes malaria
Ciliophora Ciliates
Stentor-uses cilia to pull in food particles
Oomycota water mold-life cycle -have large immobile eggs and small mobile sperm -have coenocytic hyphae
Bacillariophyta-Diatoms-silica-glass-like shell consist of two halves
Bacillariophyta-Diatoms- freshwater species that has just divided
Phaeophyta Brown Algae-largest algae; fucoxanthin pigment; Air bladders
Phaeophyta Brown Algae Life Cycle with alternation of generations
Rhodophyta Red Algae-pigment phycobilins that absorb blue light this allows them to grow at greatest depths
Chlorophyta Spirogyra conjugation
Chlorophyta Green Algae-no crosswalls with multiple nuclei-coenocytic
Chlorophyta Green Algae- life of Chlamydomonas a unicellular algae
