What is cholorplast?
used for photosynthesis
used for algea
little hairs to help move
6

pseudopods, paramecium, cholorplasts
amoeba, paramecium
8
What are cilia and what is their function?
little hair to help move and eat
flappers to walk
wings to fly
long tails to help move and get food
9
The combination of fungi and algae or fungus and bacteria are called________________
lichen
protists
amoeba
10
What do fungi have in common with animals?
autotrophs and amoeba
heterotrophs and eukaryotic
hyphae and spores
11
What are flagella and what is their function?
long tails to help move and get food
flappers to walk
wings to fly
little hair to help move and eat
12
Why is algae helpful?
floats around and filters water
Keeps the sea green
food for fish and other animals
13
Euglena, paramecium, and amoeba all belong to what kingdom?
Fungi
Protist
14
Why are fungi important?
they cause disease; decompose things/environment recycling
all of the above
part of lichens, provide food, fight disease
help plants grow healthier and larger
15
What do all protists have in common?
All have a nucleus
All have hairs
Are all amoeba
16
What are threadlike structures that make up the bodies of multicellular fungi called?
eukaryotic
hyphae
flagella
17
What type of reproduction produces fungi that are different from either parent?
Heterotroph
assexual
sexual = conjugation
18
How are plant-like protists similar to plants
heterotrophs
euglena
autotrophs
pseudopods
19
How do yeast cells reproduce?
budding=asexually
sexual=conjugation
automatic
20
What are algae?
plant-like protists
animals we eat
slime
21
Mushroom, yeast, and mold all belong to what kingdom?
Fungi
Protist
22
What structures allow amoebas to move?
heterotrophs
autotrophs
euglena
pseudopods
23
What is an example of an animal-like protist?
nucleus, amoeba
heterotroph, food eater
paramecium, amoeba, plasmodium
24
How are fungus like protists similar to fungi?
autotrophs, have spores, green
slime, have long tails, have hairs
heterotrophs, have cell walls, use spores to reproduce
25
How are animal-like protists similar to animals?
They move
Heterotrophs and move to get food
They are autotrophs
26
Which is the following is true about examples of animal like protists?
with pseudopods - amoeba and with cilia - paramecium
with flagella - giardia and parasites - malaria
All of the above
27
Why are fungus Penicillium important?
used as an antibiotic
used as an additive to food
used as food
28
How do fungi get food using their hyphae?
it chops up the food into smaller pieces to aid in digestion
helps digest the food by chewing it
Grows into food, release digestive juice, they absorb food
29
What causes red tide (when ocean water turns red and kills the fish)?
photosynthesis
pseudopods
dinoflagellates
30
What characteristics do all fungi share?
heterotrophs, hyphae, pseudopod
eurkaryotes, cilia, flagella
eukaryotes, cell walls, spores to reproduce, heterotrophs
31
What are the 4 groups of animal-like protists?
fungi, amoeba
with pseudopods, with cilia, with flagella, parasites
slime mold, mildew
32
What is the difference between animal-like and plant-like protists?
animal - red; plant - green
animal-no food, has cholorplast; plant -no cholorplast
animal-eats food, no cholorplast; plant -has cholorplast
33
Are fungi autotrophs or heterotrophs?
hetero - they absorb their food
neither - they don't eat food
auto - they make own food
34
Why are giardia and plasmodium harmful?
turn everything red
cause disease
choke the animals eating it
35
What is yeast?
Imperfect fungi; single celled; makes bread rise
