Chapter 28 Protists Review
  1. The kingdom formerly known as is crumbling. Protists are more diverse than any other eukaryotes.
     
     
     
     
  2. Much of protist diversity has its origins in serial endosymbiosis.
     
     
     
     
  3. Euglenozoa, such as Euglena, contain a crystalline rod inside their .
     
     
     
     
  4. Trypanosoma is notable for being the parasite that causes sickness in humans.
     
     
     
     
  5. Plasmodium is notable for being the parasite that causes in humans.
     
     
     
     
  6. Dinoflagellates are photosynthetic and often contain internal plates of ; two propel them through water in a spinning motion.
     
     
     
     
  7. Ciliates use to move and feed. An example is Paramecium, which can undergo genetic recombination by conjugation.
     
     
     
     
  8. Amoebozoans possess lobe-shaped or tube-shaped, .
     
     
     
     
  9. Diatoms are photosynthetic and are commercially important as a source of earth.
     
     
     
     
  10. Golden algae ( ) can be unicellular or colonial and contain yellow and brown for photosynthesis.
     
     
     
     
  11. Brown algae ( ), are multicellular "seaweeds" that can grow to great heights.
     
     
     
     
  12. Red algae and green algae are the closest relatives of land plants.
     
     
     
     
    • Red algae ( ) multicellular "seaweeds", some of which are edible.
       
       
       
       
    • Green algae ( ) contain that give them their green color.
     
     
     
     
  13. An innovation among the multicellular algae is the of generations.
