Kingdom Monera #1
Organisms that break down dead organic matter into smaller molecules.
Decomposers
Bacteria that are called blue-green algae because they are an algae-like group of photosynthetic bacteria?
Cyanobacteria.
The plant-like organisms in this kingdom.
Unicellular algae.
A group from this kingdom that are animal-like and are eukaryotic. They are also in a group called zooplankton.
Protozoan.
Kelp body structure
Blades, pneumatocysts, stipe, and holdfast.
The kingdom that represents the least complex organisms in creation.
Kingdome Monera
Heterotrophic bacteria that need to break down their food in the presence of oxygen.
Aerobatic bacteria.
Microscopic photosynthetic organisms that drift in the water.
Phytoplankton.
The two major groups of zooplankton.
Holoplankton and meroplankton.
Dipliod cells and hapliod cells
2. A cell that contains half the normal number of chromosomes (one from each pair).
The members of this kingdom.
Bacteria.
Why does seagrass not grow big flowers?
Because there are not many polonatores.
Plentiful oceanic phytoplankton, especially in temperate waters.
Diatoms.
Organisms that are placed in the phylum Sarcodina and what are their extensions of their cytoplasm? What is it that they make on the ocean surface after they die?
Foraminiferns/Pseudopodia/Foraminiferan.
Members of kingdom Fungi.
Fungus.
The process where there are so many cyanobacteria that it changes the water's color?
Red tide.
What are trees that grow in water, and what are their roots called?
Mangroves/Prop roots.
Members of phylum Pyrrhophyta that have two unequal flagella.
Dinoflagellates.
What share the same phylum of foraminiferans, and what is the stuff that their shells make on the ocean floor?
Radiolarians/Radiolarian ooze.
A close relationship between two species where at least one benefits.
Symbiosis.
Bacteria that make their own food.
Autotrophic bacteria.
Plants that grow on land, but their roots are in water.
Cordgrass.
When dinoflagetes reproduce, they do it asexually by cell division. What is it called when there are so many in the water doing this?
Bloom.
Members of phylum Ciliophora. The hair-like stuff on them. A group of them.
Ciliates/Cilia/tintinnids.
The relationship of fungi and algae.
The algae provides food for the fungi, and the fungi provides protection for the algae.
