What is Herbert Copeland's system of classification?
Copeland-1938 4 Kingdoms --Animal --Plants --Protoctista -Algae -Slime molds -Fungi -Protozoan --Monera -Bacteria
How much percent of bacteria are harmful?
Only 1% of bacteria is harmful to humans
Do steel investment foundries make use of industrial molds?
Steel investment foundries make use of industrial molds
In what ways do the macroscopic features of bacterial colonies differ from that of molds?
Bacteria looks more glossy, white or yellow Molds will have a fuzzy look to them
Why are cells small not big?
Probably so they are easier to repair. The problem that a cell has with growing larger is that the surface of the cell does not increase as rapidly as the volume of the cell. At the size of the largest cell, the surface area is so small relative to the volume that the cell is barely able to transpire. There are exceptions to the rule, though. The largest single cell is the slime mold plasmodium. It can be considered a single cell because their thousands of nuclei are not bounded by cell walls or membranes. Slime molds can grow to cover several square inches. They are able to transpire because of the way that their cytoplasm streams. They are the closest thing in nature to "The Blob".
Are slime molds edible, and if so, what are the potential health benefits or risks associated with consuming them?
Slime molds are generally not considered edible for humans, as they can cause digestive issues and allergic reactions. Consuming them may pose health risks due to potential toxins or contaminants. It is recommended to avoid eating slime molds.
What are protist that don't resemble plants animals or fungi called?
Slime molds do not resemble plants, animals, or fungi.
Cellular slime molds can be distinguished from plasmodial slime molds on the basis of what?
Cellular slime molds are distinguished from plasmodial slime molds by the presence of individual, distinct cells that remain separate even during the feeding stage. In contrast, plasmodial slime molds have a multinucleate, single cell mass during feeding.
Slime molds can be classified as acellular or?
Slime molds are all cellular. The unique fact is that they may or may not be multinucleated.
Are there different types of slime and water molds?
Yes, there are different types of slime molds and water molds. Slime molds, primarily classified into myxogastrids (plasmodial slime molds) and dictyostelids (cellular slime molds), exhibit unique life cycles and structural forms. Water molds, belonging to the oomycetes group, include various species that thrive in aquatic environments and can affect plant health. Each type plays distinct ecological roles and has unique characteristics.
Is slime mold an autotroph?
Slime molds are considered to be heterotrophs. Slime molds obtain their energy by consuming soil, decaying wood, and other decaying materials.
Are slime mold autotrophic or heterotrophic?
heterotrophs
Do slime molds live in animals?
no
The fruiting bodies in cellular slime molds and sporangia in a cellular slime molds?
The fruiting bodies in cellular slime molds serve as structures for spore formation and dispersal, allowing the organism to reproduce. Sporangia in cellular slime molds are specialized structures that contain spores, which are dispersed to new environments to colonize and continue the life cycle. Both structures are essential for the reproductive success of cellular slime molds.
Which characteristic is not seen in both water molds and slime molds?
One characteristic not seen in both water molds and slime molds is the presence of true multicellularity. Water molds (oomycetes) are primarily unicellular or form simple filaments, while slime molds can exhibit complex multicellular structures during their life cycle, such as the plasmodium stage. Additionally, water molds are classified as fungi-like protists that absorb nutrients from their environment, whereas slime molds can exhibit behaviors similar to amoebas, including movement and foraging.
What is scrambled egg slime mold's classification?
