Biology 117 Wvu Exam2, With 74 Questions & Answers
2024 ( A+ Graded 100% Verified)
1. endosymbiosis theory: the idea that mitochondria used to be their own species, but
were absorbed and ended up creating a beneficial relationship between the
mitochondria and the host cell
2. plasmodial slime mold: unicellular organism, very large with multiple nuclei,
pseudopodia
3. pseudopodia: completely wrap outer cell membrane around a food particle, bring it
inside, and then digest
4. cellular slime mold: unicellular, multiple cells work together when it comes to
starvation or reproduction
5. choanoflagellates: unicellular, live in colonies, reproductive cells have a single
flagellum
6. diplomonads: unicellular, parasite, flagellated, no mitochondria, common cause of
waterborne illness
7. euglenids: unicellular, parasite, no mitochondria, freshwater plankton, light sensitive
eye spot, carried by biting flies
8. dinoflagellates: unicellular, alveoli, two flagella which cause spinning, look like turtle
shells, algal blooms
9. apicomplexans: unicellular, alveoli, parasites, like malaria
10. oomycota: two flagella with one covered in hairs, fungal like, water mold,
decompose dead things, ick on dead goldfish
11. diatoms: two flagella with one covered in hairs, unicellular, can photosynthesize,
has silica cell walls, "living snowflakes
12. brown algae: two flagella with one covered in hairs, multicellular, "sea weed," not
plants
13. Haptophytes: CaCO3 scales, unicellular algae, multiple scales cover the body
14. cryptophytes: thin CaCO3 shell, photosynthetic algae, two uneven flagella that
cause zigzag movement
15. foraminifera: unicellular amoebae, shell-like coverings, multiple nuclei,
pseudopodia through tiny pores
16. red algae: contains chloroplasts, creates large algae mats, found in coral rees
17. green algae: unicellular and multicellular, chloroplasts, can be called sea weed
18. fungi: eukaryotic, unicellular are yeast, multicellular are networks of branching
filaments, multiple mating types, absorb nutrients from other organisms
19. mycellium: the network of branching filaments of fungi, below ground
