Protists
The most diverse kingdom
![Page 2: Protists The most diverse kingdom. Basic Characteristics all live in moist environments. are unicellular or multi-cellular](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022072013/56649e4d5503460f94b43be2/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Basic Characteristics
• all live in moist environments.
• are unicellular or multi-cellular

Why are Protists important?
They:
• provide food and energy for pond food chains
• support the fish and animal life in and around the pond.

3 types of Protists
• 1) Animal-like
• 2) Plant- like
• 3) Fungus-like

1) Protozoa {animal-like Protists}(means first animal)
• All protozoa digest their food in stomach-like compartments called vacuoles.
• they make and give off nitrogen

4 types of Protozoans
a) Move by cilia
b) Move by “false-feet” (psuedopod)
c) Move by Flagella
d) Don’t move (parasites)

a) Ciliates
• have hair-like projections called cilia
• They use the hairs to help food particles get sucked in to them
• beat their cilia in a rhythmic pattern to move along
paramaceium

b) Amoeba (Sarcodines)
• they ooze about by extending parts of their cell as pseudopods or "false feet."
• they have fluid cell membranes or coverings that they can stretch out, bend and curve.

c) Flagellates
• have one or several long, whip-like projections called flagella poking out of their cells.
• they swim by waving their flagella, using them much like a fish uses its tail to push itself through water.
Chilomonas
Euglena

d) Protists that don’t move
• Parasitic protozoans• Malaria –Anopholes
mosquito
'''Toxoplasma gondii'''

Some Protozoans we expect to find:
Spirostomum
Euplotes
Chilomonas
Euglena
Dileptus

How are protists harmful?
Malaria • is caused by a sporozoan (a parasitic protist)
• enters through the Anopheles mosquito
African Sleeping sickness
• *Flagellates called trypanosomes
• Cause fever and sleepiness• http://www.utm.edu/departments/cece/old_site/seventh/7D2.shtml
