Algae – An introductionSix Phyla of Algae

EuglenophytaBacilliarophytaDinoflagellataChlorophytaRhodophytaPhaeophyta

DiscussAll of these end in “phyta”

phyte, phyto or phyta refer to being ____________ like or being a ______________.

DinoflagellataDinoflagellates

carotenoids

Dinoflagellataasexual reproduction [or weird fusion…]thick cellulose platesbioluminescence can be harmful

DiscussWhich phylum of algae…

have shells made of glass?are responsible for the harmful red tides?are both auto- and hetero- trophic?

Which type(s) of algae are phytoplankton, and what great benefit do phytoplankton serve?

Page 11: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

ChlorophytaGreen Algae – most diverseunicellular, multicellular, or colonialmost in water but

all need moistplace to survive…

Page 12: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Chlorophyta…a moist place like

a SLOTH! [only 2 – 4 meters per minute ]

Page 13: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Chlorophytacan have flagellaalternation of generations

Page 14: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Alternation of Generationstype of reproduction

utilizing asexual & sexual means

Page 15: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Alternation of Generationsoffspring generations

alternate between being haploid [1n] in one generation to being diploid [2n] the next.

Page 16: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Alternation of GenerationsSporophyte [2n]

produces spores [1n]through meiosis

Page 17: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Alternation of GenerationsSpores [1n] produce

gametophytes [1n] throughmitosis

Page 18: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Alternation of GenerationsGametophyte [1n]

produces gametes [1n]through mitosis

Page 19: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Alternation of GenerationsGametes [1n] fuse

in fertilization to produce zygote [2n]

Page 20: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Alternation of GenerationsZygote [2n] grows to

become embryo [2n]

Page 21: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Alternation of GenerationsEmbryo [2n] grows

to become sporophyte [2n]…

etc.

Discuss – What You Need to Know About Alternation of Generationstype of reproduction utilizing

_______________ & _______________ meansoffspring generations alternate between being

_______________ [1n] in one generation to being _______________ [2n] the next.

gametophytes [1n] make _______________ [1n] through mitosis

sporophytes [2n] make _______________ [1n] through meiosis

Page 23: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Other PhylaRhodophyta – sea weeds, red algae

Page 24: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Other PhylaPhaeophyta – brown algae, kelp

most in salt waterhave air bladders to keep them afloat

Discuss

What is the most diverse group of plant-like protists?

Page 26: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Fungus-Like ProtistsSlime Molds, Water Molds, & Downy Mildewsunicellular to colonialheterotrophic – saphrophytic have cell wallslive in moist placesall have movement at some

point in their life cycle to get to food

Page 27: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Fungus-Like Protists“mycota” / “mycete” – fungus or fungus-likeexamples

myxomycota – plasmodial slime moldsform a plasmodium

no cell wallno membranes

Page 28: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Fungus-Like Protists“mycota” / “mycete” – fungus or fungus-likeexamples

myxomycota – plasmodial slime moldsform a plasmodium

many nuclei – cells merge together into a large mass

amoeboid movement reproduce with spores

Page 29: Unit 6 – Lecture 3. Algae – an Introduction Alga – plant like protist – plural, algae unicellular or multicellular major producer of worlds oxygen sexual.

Fungus-Like Protists“mycota” / “mycete” – fungus or fungus-likeexamples

acrasiomycota – cellular slime moldscome together to reproduce

only when food is scarce – otherwise, independent

has cell membranehaploid during entire life cycle

Fungus-Like Protists“mycota” / “mycete” – fungus or fungus-likeexamples

oomycota – water molds & downy mildewsproduce flagellated

reproductive cellsvery large and

diverse group

DiscussWhat word refers to…

the color red?the color green?the color brown?plant or plant-like?fungus or fungus-like?
