 PROTISTA
• are eukaryotic
• most are unicellular and some
are multicellular
• autotrophic , heterothrophic
and aquatic
• Need a watery environment
 classifications
• Phototrophs produce
their own food
• Heterotrophs feed on
other organisms
 Phototrophs
•Algae
•Dinoflagellates
•Euglenoids
 Algae
• Autotrophic
• Often contain pyrenoids
• green, red or brown and gold
• are photoautotrophs
• they are found in the ocean
 Classifications
• Green Algae (Chlorophyta)
• Golden Algae (Chrysophyccea)
• Brown Algae (Phaeophyceae)
• Red Algae (Rhodophyta)
 Green Algae
• grow on wet, humid rocks
and polluted water ways
• differ in size
• some are unicellular
• produce starch
Caulerpa lentillifera
 Golden algae
• contain chlorophyll
• masked by yellow pigment
• store food in the form of
leucosin oil
 Brown algae
• Brown pigment mask their chlorophyll
• store carbohydrate in the form of
laminarin
• Largest algae species
• have bladders and float near the water
surface where light is present
• contain alginic acid
• help form coral reefs
 Red algae
• They store food in the form of
floridean starch
• Red pigments mask their chlorophyll
• Most are marine
• Smaller than brown algae
• Live in deep water where other
seaweeds cannot survive
• Can be used as agar
kanot-kanot
 Dinoflagellates
• Most are live in saltwater
environments
• Thick cell walls
• Cause what is known as “red tide”
• Produce toxins which are
responsible for fish kills
• Pyrodinium bahamense
 Euglenoids
• microscopic and unicellular
• have a whiplike flagellum for
movement
• Some of them have chlorophyl
• light is available-it makes food
utilizing chlorophyll. absence of light-
absorbs nutrients from dead organic
matter
 Importance of Algae
• primary producers in aquatic
food chains
• also source of food
• produce most of the
molecular oxygen in the
Earth’s atmosphere

amoeba
 Protozoans
• Animal-like
• are unicellular and heterotrophs
• Have pseudopods
• radiolarians, foraminiferans,
amoeba, paramecium and
flagellates
 ciliates
• members of protozoa that
live in fresh or salt water.
They also have a hair-like
structure which help them
move
 Radiolarians
•These are
protozoans which
has threadlike
pseudopodia
 Flagellates
• Flagellates move with
the help of a whip-like
structure which is called
flagella
 Foraminiferans
• rhizopod protozoans
same as with amoeba
 Amoeba
• A tiny living thing that
consist of a single cell
and used pseudopods
to move
Entamoeba histolytica
• a harmful amoeba that
live in freshwater that
caused amoebiasis
• can contaminate water
 Plasmodium
•a sporozoans that
causes malaria
ALGAE PROTOZOA

Plant-like Animal-like

Produce own food Need other organisms for food

All algae contain chlorophyll Doesn’t contain chlorophyll

Cannot move almost all move

Microscopic but can grow high microscopic

Green algae amoeba

Importance of protist
• source of food
• use in the field of medicine
• source of commercial products
• primary producer
of aquatic ecosystem
1. What have you learned about protist?
2. Give 2 characteristics of algae
3. Give 2 characteristics of protozoans
4. How do you find our lesson for today? Is
it hard or difficult?
5. Describe our class for today.
6. If you will become an algae, what algae
would you be? Why would like to become
such?
