Give two reasons diatoms are useful to humans.
produce oxygen; can be used in producrs (toothpaste /mild abrasives, insulation material, diatomaceous earth, etc.)
Who will proctor your test?
A parent or guardian
Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic, so they produce oxygen for other creatures. What other thing do cyanobacteria do for the creatures in creation.
They fix nitrogen (nitrogen-fixing bacteria take nitrogen gas and convert it to nitrate or ammonia, which is useful to other organisms)
What happens to the size of the daughter cells when diatoms split their frustules?
One offspring will be smaller than the parent
How many flagella do dinoflagellates have?
2
What do heterotrophic bacteria and fungi have in common when it comes to their eating habits?
Both are decomposers
Seaweed that follows the alternation of generations lifecycle produces haploid spores. To what type of generation will those haploid spores develop?
gametophyte
What two types of organisms are associated with one another in a lichen?
Fungus and algae
Why don’t the seagrasses need large, showy flowers?
Seagrasses do not need to attract pollinators to spread their pollen. They release it in the ocean currents.
Name the 4 parts of seaweed.
Stipe, holdfast, blade, and pneumotosysts; the entire structure is called the thallus
What are cyanotoxins?
Harmful toxins produced by cyanobacteria ("blue-green algae")
What is the difference between zooplankton and phytoplankton?
Animal-like protists and plant-like protists
Diatoms, Sillicoflagellates, and Coccolithophores all belong to which phylum?
Phylum Chrysophyta
What are two processes that autotrophic bacteria can use to convert energy into organic matter?
Photosynthesis and chemosynthesis
What are foraminifera tests made out of?
calcium carbonate
What are radiolarians shells composed of?
silica
What do chlorophyll, fucoxanthin, and phycobillins have in common?
They are all pigments used in photosynthesis
How many methods of reproduction do diatoms have? Describe them.
1. Asexually by splitting their frustules; 2. asexually by shedding thier frustules and forming an auxospore; 3. sexually by forming gametes and then auxospores
Why are cyanobacteria so important?
They are nitrogen fixers (nitrogen-fixing bacteria take nitrogen gas and convert it to nitrate or ammonia, which is useful to other organisms)
On a cellular level, what is the main difference between Kingdom Monera and all other Kingdoms?
Prokaryotic cells vs. eurakyotic
