Study Notes
Anabaena
- Autotrophic organism, capable of photosynthesis.
- Reproduces asexually through fission or fragmentation.
- Classified as a prokaryote, lacking a defined nucleus.
- Can undergo chromatic adaptations, changing pigmentation based on light conditions.
Foraminifera
- Belongs to the domain Eukarya; classified under Kingdom Protista and Phylum Foraminifera.
- Heterotrophic, feeding on organic materials.
- Uses reticulopodia for locomotion and feeding.
- Covered by a test made of calcium carbonate, providing structural support.
- Reproduces both sexually and asexually, enhancing genetic diversity.
- Eukaryotic cellular structure allows for complexity in organism functions.
- Utilizes reticulopodia to capture food and assist in buoyancy while moving in aquatic environments.
Paramecium
- Eukarya domain, classified within Kingdom Protista.
- Heterotrophic, primarily consuming bacteria and organic particles.
- Locomotion is facilitated by cilia, tiny hair-like structures that allow movement.
- Covered by a pellicle, a flexible outer layer providing protection.
- Exhibits both sexual (conjugation) and asexual reproduction (binary fission).
- Eukaryotic cell structure includes a defined nucleus and organelles.
Diatoms
- Classified under the domain Eukarya within Kingdom Protista.
- Exhibit both autotrophic and heterotrophic feeding modes.
- Locomotion achieved through secretion of mucilage, aiding movement in water.
- Covered by a unique frustule composed of silica, providing rigidity and protecting interior structures.
- Reproduces sexually (through the formation of auxospores) and asexually, ensuring adaptability and survival.
- Eukaryotic organisms with complex cellular arrangements.
Ceratium
- Eukaryotic organism classified under the Kingdom Protista, specifically within the dinoflagellates group.
- Displays mixotrophic nutrition, capable of both photosynthesis and heterotrophy.
- Covered by a pellicle made of cellulose plates, lending structural integrity.
- Reproduces primarily through binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction.
- Known to cause harmful algal blooms, impacting aquatic ecosystems.
