Last minute notes...
Heliozoa-Helio=sun-looks like a sun with many pseudopods
that stick out like sun rays
Dinoflagellates-Dino-dinos can be heterotrophs or
autotrophs-looks like an ear (do dinosaurs even have ears?)
Amoeboza-recall amoeba proteus=squishy thing with lots of “feet”
Radiolaria-radio=hard=has holes for speakers=prickly
looking=radiolaria, radios cannot move, radiolarians can’t move, and radios
need an outside source, this one is heterotrophic and sometimes depends on
dinoflagellates.
Stramenopiles-grow in a “pile” brown algae is so big, like
in a “pile” diatoms have tons of shells in a “pile”
Euglenoid-looks like a paramecium with no cilla, is
photosynthetic, (see photo below) have
pellicle, and are photosynthetic

The end of the study notes trilogy
ØChemical evolution ended because oxygen
accumulated in the atmosphere, and it caused many organisms who couldn’t take
in oxygen to die
o
This ceased diversity, which caused less
chemical evolution
Ø
Chemical evolution is when an organism adapts to
using a new gas molecule
Ø
2n vs. n
o
2n=diploid
o
n=haploid
Ø
Polyploidy-when the chromosome number is three
or greater
o
Happens in plants
o
If happens in organisms, they usually die
Ø
Eukaryotic vs. Bacterial flagellum
o
Eukaryotic-9+2 array, have different structure,
o
Bacterial-Adhere to surfaces and help with
conjugation
Study Notes (Part 2)
Ø African
sleeping sickness is in the phylum trypanosomes and its scientific name is trypanosome
brucei
Ø It
affects the nervous system
Ø
Different blood types have different enzymes on
the outside
o
Blood type O is recessive
o
Blood type AB is a form of codominance
o
Blood type A is only made with AA or AO
o
Blood type B is only made with BB or BO
Ø
Euglenoid=freshwater dinoflagellate
photoautotroph
Ø
Diatom=silica perforated shell pillbox shaped
Ø
A viroid is a piece of genetic information that
is like a virus but with no proteins and is tightly folded RNA
Ø
viroid=naked, dangerous genetic info with no
proteins
o
vs.
Ø
prion=coagulate massive deposit inside brain and
causes infections, is tightly folded RNA, is not naked, and is a protien that
is hard to solute (mad cow disease)
