All organisms must gather things to perform the basic processes of life, such as growing and developing, or repairing injured parts.
What is obtaining and using resources for energy?
100
This kingdom includes microorganisms such as yeast and molds as well as multicellular organisms such as mushrooms.
What is the kingdom fungi?
100
fungi will grow in response to light
What is phototropism?
200
a protist that has a whip-like tail
What is a euglena?
200
moist environments
Where do protists live?
200
plants who make their own food through photosynthesis
What is an autotroph?
200
Fungi that get their energy from decaying organic matter.
What are saprophytic fungi?
200
fungi grows toward gravity (fruiting body) or away from gravity (hyphae/mycelium)
What is geotropism/gravitropism?
300
a protist that has cilia or hair-like structures
What is a paramecium?
300
ingest or absorb food after capturing or trapping it.
What is an animal-like protist?
300
environmental changes in light, temperature, sound, amount of water, space, amounts or types of food or other organisms present
What what is responding to stimuli?
300
Fungi that feed on other living organisms (host) and harm the host
What are parasitic fungi?
300
as fungal species mature they tend to display this
What is negative geotropism/gravitropism?
400
uses its own cytoplasm to move
What is an amoeba?
400
produce food through photosynthesis.
What is a plant-like protists?
400
organisms have the ability to produce offspring identical to a parent (asexual) or a combination of the the two parents (sexual)
What is reproduce?
400
Fungi that feed on other living organisms (host) but do not harm the host. In many cases the host benefits from the fungi.
What are symbiotic fungi?
400
fungi is greatly influenced by stimuli and will grow toward a water
What is hydrotropism?
500
paramecium, euglena and amoeba
What are the three protists that we studied?
500
obtain their food by external digestion either as decomposers or as parasites
What is a fungus-like protists?
500
process whereby the organism becomes larger (has an increase in height, mass, and/or overall size)
or a process that occurs in the life of the organism that results in the organism becoming more complex structurally
What is grow and develop?
500
fruiting structures (structures for reproduction and spore dispersal)
