Above - an example of a protist, the paramecium, which is a microscopic hetertroph (as seen by the lack of chlorophylls) Below - a diagram of a fungi, which was covered in class as only the reproductive part, the mycelium is truly responsible for fungi growth
Dr. Rabiul explains cellular adaptations *Note: Please see the description to navigate through the video to the topic of interest
Above - an amoeba, which was covered that they are like paramecium in that they are heterotrophs, but amoebas move using pseudopodia instead of cilia Below - a euglena, which is an autotroph, but uses an eyespot to determine what spots are best lit up to do photosynthesis in
A closer look at the different Cellular Adaptations:
Above - a red tide and dinoflagellates, which cause them. Dinoflagellate population booms, which leads to a mass produced toxin that, if consumed via fish in the toxin, causes paralytic shellfish poisoning Below - a plasmodium and a mosquito. The plasmodium enters the human body and causes Malria, and is spread by the mosquito
