Protista Characteristics
Eukaryotic Organisms that are not members of the Plantae, Animalia, or Fungi kingdoms
Most of them are unicellular but some are multicellular
Cell walls with cellulose in some Some have chloroplasts Autotrophs or heterotrophs Amoeba, Giant Kelp, Euglena

Protista
Comes from the Greek words meaning “the very first”
Protists were the first eukaryotic organisms on Earth
They are believed to appear 1.5 billion years ago
Hypothesized from Lynn Margulis that they evolved from a symbiosis of several cells.

Classification of Protists
Incredibly diverse Different groups of protists that are an
artificial way to organize a diverse group The groups are based on the way food is
obtained, not the evolutionary history

Animallike Protists: Protozoans
“First animals” Heterotrophs Four phyla are based on movement means Zooflagellates swim with flagella Sarcodines move by extensions of their
cytoplasm called pseudopods Ciliates move by cilia Sporozoans do not move at all on their own

Diseases
Zooflagellates of the genus Trypanosoma cause African sleeping sickness
The tsetse fly is the method of spreading the infection from person to person
Damage to blood cells and tissue infection occurs
Fatal sleep results

Diseases
Entamoeba is a parasite that causesamebic dysentery in areas with poor sanitation It lives in the intestines, absorbs food, and
causes severe bleeding in the host Passed out in the feces and make their way to
water

Diseases
Dysentery can occur even in clear streams Caused by the pathogen, Giardia Causes diarrhea and digestive problems Don’t drink water that isn’t clean Don’t eat without
washing hands after using the restroom

Plantlike Protists
Contain green pigments, chlorophyl and photosynthesize
Commonly called “algae” 4 unicellular phyla
Euglenophytes-two flagella, no cell wall Chrysophytes-gold color chloroplasts Diatoms-produce silicon in their cell walls (glass) Dinoflagellates-half photosynthesize, half
consumers
![Page 13: Protista Kingdom. Protista Characteristics Eukaryotic Organisms that are not members of the Plantae, Animalia, or Fungi kingdoms Most of them are](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649dc55503460f94ab90e7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Plantlike Protists
3 multicelluar phyla Red algae-able to live deep in water due to
efficiency in harvesting light energy (phycobilins and chlorophyll a)
Brown algae-chlorophyll a and c and fucoxanthin) Green algae-similar to plants pigments and cell
wall The biggest difference is their photosynthetic
pigments

Ecology of Unicellular Algae
Plantlike protists play a major ecological role on Earth
What would happen if they disappeared?
![Page 15: Protista Kingdom. Protista Characteristics Eukaryotic Organisms that are not members of the Plantae, Animalia, or Fungi kingdoms Most of them are](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649dc55503460f94ab90e7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Algal Blooms
And The Water Turns to Blood Protists grow rapidly when sewage is
discharged They recycle sewage and waste material When waste is excessive, euglenophytes and
other algae “bloom” This can rob water of oxygen, choke fish and
invertebrates
![Page 16: Protista Kingdom. Protista Characteristics Eukaryotic Organisms that are not members of the Plantae, Animalia, or Fungi kingdoms Most of them are](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649dc55503460f94ab90e7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Great Blooms
Red Tides can be dangerous if shellfish is ingested by humans and contaminated
May result in illness, paralysis, and death in humans and fish
![Page 17: Protista Kingdom. Protista Characteristics Eukaryotic Organisms that are not members of the Plantae, Animalia, or Fungi kingdoms Most of them are](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649dc55503460f94ab90e7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
How can humans help prevent these tides?

Reproduction of Green Algae
The life cycles of many algae include both a diploid and haploid generation called the alteration of generations
![Page 21: Protista Kingdom. Protista Characteristics Eukaryotic Organisms that are not members of the Plantae, Animalia, or Fungi kingdoms Most of them are](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649dc55503460f94ab90e7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Uses of Algae Major food source for life in the oceans Base of the food chain Kelp provides shelter for many species Provides half of the world’s oxygen Vitamin C and Iron Source Helps treat ulcers, high blood pressure,
arthritis Food source (ice cream, pudding, salad
dressing, syrup, candy, eggnog) Chemicals (plastics, paints, waxes, deodorants) Agar

Funguslike Protists
Heterotrophs that absorb nutrients from dead or decaying organic matter
Centrioles Lack chitin cell walls of true fungi
![Page 23: Protista Kingdom. Protista Characteristics Eukaryotic Organisms that are not members of the Plantae, Animalia, or Fungi kingdoms Most of them are](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649dc55503460f94ab90e7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Ecology of Funguslike Protists
Slime molds and water molds are important recyclers of organic material, help the rotting process
Also cause diseases of plants
The Great Potato Famine—conditions?
