Protists & Fungi
![Page 2: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
KINGDOM PROTISTA • All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular,
but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic & some can switch back & forth. Protists were the first organisms to develop sexual reproduction & multicellularity.Most protists live in moist environments.

• There are 3 groups of protists: 1) plantlike protists called algae, 2) animal-like protists called protozoans, & •3) fungus-like
protists called slime molds.

ALGAE
•Algae are autotrophic. They are responsible for producing ~90% of the world’s oxygen. They vary greatly in size from microscopic to rubbery kelps. They serve as the basis for most aquatic food chains.Algae are classified according to color. There are 5 major groups of algae.
![Page 5: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• 1. Golden Algae - Chrysophyta/Bacillariophyta – 12000 species – most of these are unicellular- the most common examples are the diatoms- these are small organisms made of silica that resemble glass-like boxes with lids & are used to make toothpaste, paint, Comet, filters, silver polish.
![Page 6: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• 2. Fire Algae- Pyrrophyta/Dinoflagellata – 1100 species – responsible for red tides (this can paralyze/kill fish & other organisms) - these also exhibit bioluminescence- they give off light – have 2 flagella
![Page 7: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• 3. Green Algae- Chlorophyta – 7000 species – thought to be ancestors of plants- common examples are Volvox, Spirogyra, Ulva
![Page 8: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• 4. Brown Algae - Phaeophyta – 1500 species – also known as seaweed- many of these have air bladders- to help with flotation – common examples are Laminaria, Sargassum.
![Page 9: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
•5. Red Algae - Rhodophyta – 4000 species – can live at deep ocean depths (absorb green, violet, & blue light) - these can be used to make agar, ice cream, pudding, icing.
![Page 10: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
PROTOZOANS•These are
unicellular. They are classified based on their method of locomotion. They are also heterotrophs.
![Page 11: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• 1. Rhizopods (also known as Sarcodines) – best example is amoeba- these organisms move using “false feet” called pseudopodia. They also use these for engulfing food. Amoebas reproduce asexually using binary fission.
![Page 12: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• 2. Foraminiferans – (your book includes these with Sarcodines) also move using pseudopodia – have porous shells (tests) that look like snails – accumulate in limestone deposits – White cliffs of Dover
![Page 13: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• 3. Ciliates - move using cilia – best example is Paramecium - these organisms ingest food through their oral groove. Contractile vacuoles help pump water out of the cell – have a protein coat called a pellicle (helps it to squeeze through tight areas). Many have 2 nuclei – a micronucleus (contain normal chromosomes that divide by mitosis) & a macronucleus (contains small pieces of DNA derived from micronuclei).
![Page 14: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• 4. Flagellates (Zoomastigina)- move using flagella – many of these organisms have symbiotic relationships with other organisms – examples are Trypanosoma & trichonymphs. The choanoflagellates are thought to have given rise to sponges & thus all other animals.
![Page 15: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• 5. Euglenophyta - freshwater protists w/ 2 flagella – some have chloroplasts & are photosynthetic & some can be heterotrophic & autotrophic – contain eyespots that detect light (phototaxic – moves toward the light) & an outer protein coat called a pellicle.
![Page 16: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
•6. Sporozoans- (Apicomplexa) these have no method of movement & are therefore all parasitic. The most common example is Plasmodium.
![Page 17: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
SLIME MOLDS • These are all heterotrophs &
resemble fungi. These begin their life as a slimy mass containing many nuclei. The mass is called a plasmodium & oozes across the forest floor. They are considered to be decomposers. When conditions become harsh, slime molds release spores. These germinate into flagellated cells that join & form a zygote that resembles an amoeba.
![Page 18: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• 1. Acrasiomycota - cellular slime molds amoeba-shaped – form a slug when deprived of food
![Page 19: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• 2. Myxomycota - stream along as a multinucleate mass of cytoplasm – give rise to spores when conditions are harsh
![Page 20: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
•3. Oomycota- unicellular parasites or decomposers – cell walls made of cellulose – water molds, white rusts, downy mildews – plant pathogens
![Page 21: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
KINGDOM FUNGI • Fungi are nonmotile organisms
that obtain food by decomposing organic matter. They lack chloroplasts & contain chitin in their cell walls. The body of a fungus is made of several thin, individual filaments called hyphae that contain cytoplasm & nuclei. These secrete enzymes that digest food. Digestion is performed extracellularly.
![Page 22: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• The intertwined mass of hyphae is termed mycelium. It is a tangled mass primarily found under the substrate. The fruiting body is the visible portion of the fungus. Fungi are either saprophytic or parasitic.
![Page 23: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• Fungi are classified according to method of reproduction. They are able to grow under a wide range of conditions which makes them annoying pests at times, but also helpful in baking, brewing, winemaking, cheesemaking, & antibiotics. All but yeasts are multicellular. Many fungi are saprophytic.
![Page 24: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• Drawing of a typical fungus:
![Page 25: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
REPRODUCTION• Fungi reproduce by releasing
spores. These form asexually or sexually at the tips of the hyphae. Spores may be suspended in the air for long periods of time & can be carried great distances (ideal form of reproduction for organisms stationed in one area). Fungal spores are haploid(n).
Sometimes fungi contain 2 haploid nuclei, this is termed a dikaryon.
![Page 26: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
FOUR FUNGI PHYLA • 1. Zygomycota- also
known as zygote fungi – haploid nuclei from different mating types fuse to form diploid zygotes – develop into zygosporangia - have stolons that are surface hyphae & rhizoids that are like “mini-roots” (anchor the fungus) – most common example = black bread molds- usually has asexual reproduction with spores – has + & - mating strains
![Page 27: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• 2. Ascomycota- form fine asexual spores – sexual spores in asci – hyphae divided by perforated septa – dikaryons – ex. = cup fungi, yeasts, red bread mold, morels, truffles, chestnut blight, Dutch elm disease.
![Page 28: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• 3. Basidiomycota- reproduction is usually sexual – hyphae divided by septa – have a characteristic club-shaped reproductive structure ex.= mushrooms, puffballs, shelf fungi
![Page 29: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
•4. Deuteromycota- (Fungi Imperfecti) – no known sexual stage of life cycle – ex. = Penicillium, Athlete’s foot, ringworm, fungi used to make cheese, soy sauce
![Page 30: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• 5. Chytridiomycota - motile cells with a single, whiplike flagellum
![Page 31: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
FUNGAL ASSOCIATIONS
• Symbiosis refers to a close relationship between 2 organisms. Fungi form symbiotic associations with plants, green algae, & cyanobacteria.
![Page 32: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
• 1. Lichens- mutualistic relationships between fungi (almost always ascomycetes) & cyanobacteria, green algae, or both; the photosynthetic partners live among the hyphae of the fungus; the fungus derives energy from its photosynthetic partners & cannot survive without them – the fungus provides minerals & protection from the environment for its partner – can live in harsh environments & are often known as pioneer organisms – sensitive to pollution – good indicators about the environment
![Page 33: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• 2. Mycorrhizae- mutualistic relationships between fungi & the roots of plants; 80% of all plants have mycorrhizae associated with their roots;; the plant provides sugars to the fungi; in return, the fungi serve as accessory roots, greatly increasing the surface area available for the absorption of nutrients
![Page 34: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
2 types:
•1) Endomycorrhizae- mycorrhizae penetrate the plant root (probably led to the invasion of land by plants),
![Page 35: Protists & Fungi. KINGDOM PROTISTA All protists are eukaryotes. Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular. Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e405503460f94b311ad/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
•2) Ectomycorrhizae- mycorrhizae wrap around the root – important for most trees
