Protists are a diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that do not fit into the plant, animal, or fungi kingdoms. They are unicellular or simple multicellular organisms that can be autotrophic or heterotrophic. Major groups such as plants, animals, and fungi are more complex multicellular organisms with distinct structures and functions.
Brown seaweed belongs to the protista kingdom because it is a type of algae known as Phaeophyta. Algae are simple, plant-like organisms that lack specialized tissues found in higher plants and are classified under the protista kingdom due to their unique characteristics and evolutionary history.
The correct answer is Proteus Animalcule. A scientific name for an Amoeba is "Acanthamoeba polyphaga."
Amoebas do not form a single taxonomic group. They are found in every major lineage of eukaryotic organisms. They are found among protozoa, fungi, animals, and algae.
No, amoebas do not have cell walls made of cellulose. They belong to a group of organisms known as protozoa, which generally lack cell walls or have flexible cell membranes. Cellulose cell walls are more commonly found in plants and some algae.
The paramecium and euglena belong to the Kingdom Protista. This kingdom is composed of single-celled organisms that have characteristics of both plants and animals. Protists are primarily aquatic and can be found in various freshwater and marine environments.
No, protista is not a bacteria. Protista is a kingdom that includes diverse microorganisms like algae, protozoa, and slime molds. Bacteria belong to a separate kingdom called Bacteria.
Paramecium belongs to the class Oligohymenophorea within the phylum Ciliophora.
Amoebas are heterotrophs, meaning they obtain their food by consuming other organisms or organic matter for energy. They do not perform photosynthesis like autotrophs to produce their own food.
Endocytosis helps an organism like amoeba by allowing it to ingest food particles and other substances from the external environment. Amoebas use a process called phagocytosis to surround and engulf these particles into a membrane-bound vesicle called a food vacuole. The content of the food vacuole is then digested to provide nutrients and energy for the amoeba's survival and growth.
The kingdom Protista includes a diverse group of eukaryotic microorganisms. There is no fixed classification for all protists, as they exhibit a wide range of characteristics and are grouped based on their similarities. However, they can be categorized into various phyla, such as Euglenozoa, Ciliophora, Amoebozoa, and Stramenopiles, among others, each with their own unique classes, orders, families, genera, and species.
No, protists are not ectothermic. Ectothermic refers to animals that rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature. Protists are single-celled organisms and do not have the ability to regulate their body temperature.
A diatom shape is usually round or triangular. They could also be a thin oval shape.
As well, the potentially practical shapes they Form may only be classified as Infinite.
Diatoms are microscopic. Diatoms range in size from about 2 microns to about 500 microns or equal to the width of a human hair.
Diatoms account for 23% of the primary productivity of the world, that's what they do!
Diatoms are plantlike protists of the phylum Bacillariophyta.
Land and aquatic vertebrates are similar in that they both have a vertebral column. They are both either primary or secondary consumers as well. A difference is that vertebrates that live only in the water do not have fully developed hind legs.
