A temporary, foot-like extension of a cell, used for locomotion or engulfing food
Pseudopod
Images number 1 and 2- What is the subkingdom these organisms belong to?
Protozoa
What organelle matches the following function: Holds and stores food?
Food Vacuole
Honeybees and Flowers are an example of what type of symbiosis?
Honeybees collect nectar from flowers for food while pollinating them in the process. This helps flowers reproduce, and the bees receive sustenance
Mutualism
What is the purpose of the macronucleus?
The thin, watery cytoplasm near the plasma membrane of some cells
Ectoplasm
Image number 3- What is the subkingdom this organism belongs to?
Algae
What organelle allows organisms to sense light (ex: euglena)?
Eyespot
Tapeworms and Mammals are an example of what type of symbiosis?
Tapeworms live in the intestines of mammals, absorbing nutrients from their host. The tapeworm benefits, while the host suffers from nutrient depletion and potential illness.
Parasitism
What is one use of diatomaceous earth?
abrasives
toothpaste
filtering liquids
The dense cytoplasm found in the interior of many cells
Endoplasm
Image 1- What phylum does this organism belong to?
Sarcodina
What is the function of the pellicle?
Protects the plasma membrane
Ants and Aphids are an example of what type of symbiosis?
Ants protect aphids from predators in exchange for the sugary secretions (honeydew) that aphids produce. Both species benefit from this relationship.
Mutualism
What are the main features that separate organisms into phylum Sporozoa?
If they form spores naturally.
an organelle containing chlorophyll for photosynthesis
Chlorophyll
Image 2- What phylum does this organism belong to?
Ciliophora
What is the function of the contractile vacuole?
Controls water intake
Mistress of the Night (Cuscuta) and another plant are an example of what type of symbiosis?
Cuscuta plants, also known as dodder, wrap around host plants and extract nutrients from them. The dodder thrives at the expense of its host.
Parasitism
What substance produced by members of phylum Phaeophyta is useful for thickening ice cream, pudding, salad dressing, and jelly beans?
Alginic Acid
a reproductive cell with a hard protective coating
Spore
Image 3- What phylum does this organism belong to?
Chlorophyta
What is the function of the oral groove in paramecium?
Allows conjugation
Barnacles and Whales are an example of what type of symbiosis?
Barnacles attach themselves to the skin of whales. They benefit by gaining access to nutrient-rich waters as the whale swims, while the whale is generally unaffected.
Commensalism
What is the difference between conjugation between paramecia and the conjugation between bacteria?
In paramecia they BOTH share DNA and in bacteria only one shares DNA
