Bio104 Laboratory ? Student?s Guide John Jay College, C.U.N.Y Lab #5 ? Page 1 Lab #5: Green Algae, Fungi, and Lichens I. More Protista a. Continuing from last week, this will lab will explore the Domain of Eukarya. Remember that the group of organisms commonly called ?protists? is not an actual taxon ? it?s a collection of many phyla. b. Some of the protists that we will examine today are the green algae. These single-celled organisms have a common ancestor with plants, and present-day algae share many features with the ancestor of plants. All green algae are technically unicellular organisms, but some form colonies with an impressive degree of organization.

19.1: Protists The World of Protists What is a Protist? Kingdom Protista contains the most diverse group of organisms of all kingdoms Most are unicellular (diatoms), but some are multicellular (giant kelp). Some are heterotrophs, some are autotrophs and others are both. The characteristic that all protists share is that they are eukaryotes Protists are divided into animal-like protists, funguslike protists and plantlike protists. Protozoa: animal-like protist, all are unicellular Algae: plant-like protists, do not have roots, stems and leaves Unicellular algae produce most of the world?s oxygen and are the basis for aquatic food chains Fungus-like protists are able to move at some point in their life and do not have chitin in their cell walls What is a protozoan?

20.1: Fungi What is a fungus? The Characteristics of Fungi Fungi are eukaryotes, use spores to reproduce and are heterotrophs. Fungi need moist, warm places to grow Most are multicellular, yeasts are unicellular Hyphae: branching threadlike tubes that make up the bodies of multicellular fungi Fuzzy looking molds have loosely tangled hyphae. The stalk and cap of mushrooms are closely packed hyphae. Mycelium: a complex network of branching hyphae may serve to anchor the fungus, invade food sources, form reproductive structures Cell walls of must fungi contain a complex carbohydrate called chitin Cross walls called septa divide hyphae into individual cells that contain one or more nuclei Pores in the septa let cytoplasm, organelles and nutrients flow throughout the fungus

Viruses, Prokaryotes, Protists, and Fungus Study Guide Discovery of Viruses : ? While studying the tobacco mosaic disease that affects tobacco plants, scientist Dmitri Ivanovsky passed extracts of diseased tobacco leaves through filter pores small enough to strain out bacteria ( which was thought of as being pathogens) ? After realizing that the strained substance (thought to be disease free) could STILL pass on the disease, it lead him to believe that the pathogen was NOT bacteria?but what was it? Structure of Viruses : ? Basic viral structure includes genetic material (either DNA or RNA ? not both) surrounded by a protein called capsid. ? In some viruses, the capsid is surrounded by a lipid envelope that surface from which
