-The misfits, very diverse group.

-Eukaryotic Organisms.

-Are all aquatic.

-Heterotrophic

-Most can move (Flagella, cytoplasmic streaming, cillid.)

-Most are are fairly colorless or lightly colored.

-Further classified into 4 phylum. Based on how they move.

Cyto Plasmic streaming to form pseudopods. "False feet".

-Slow movement

-Other-> sarcodines->radiolarians-> glass shell-CaCO2 Shell

Protozons: Phylum Zoomastigina(Zoomastighra)

"flagellates"

-Move by flagella

(quick movement in one direction.)

Disease-Causing flagellutes

    1. Giardia- caused by Giardia lastin "Bever Fever"

    2. African Sleeping Sickness

- caused by Tripansones(sp)

-transmitted by the tutsi fly.

Protozons: Phylum Ciliophora

"Ciliates"

-Move by Cilia (quickly in many directions.)

Ex: Parmicium, colpidium, Stentor.

Protozons: Phylum Sporozoa

-Don't move

-Have a parasitic life style

Ex: Malaria-caused by Plasmid SP

-transmitted by Miquitos.

-Complex life cycle (liver and blood).

-2 mill. die a year.

-Autotrpohic, (preform photosynthesis)

-unicellular/ multicellular

-Most float

-Pigmented

-Further classified into 6 phyla based on color.

"Green algae"

Ex: Spirogyta

"Red algae"

-Large sea weeds

(Bacillariophytm)

"Golden Brown Algae"

Ex: Diatons

-Make a glass shell around the cell.

"Fire Algae"

Ex: Dinoflagellates

*Biouminesent (many are).

-Disease Causing= Red Tide.

"Euglena"

-Flagella

-Red eye spot
