That’s more ofwhat they’re not

Something’snot right here!
Too Diverse! doesn’t reflect any evolutionary relationship
amongst all kingdom members paraphyletic
AP Biology
Theory of Endosymbiosis
Ancestral eukaryotic cell Eukaryotic cell withmitochondrion
internal membrane system
aerobic bacterium
mitochondrion
chloroplast
Eukaryotic cell with chloroplasts

Paramecium & symbiont Chlorella
AP Biology
Protist Diversity The full spectrum of modes of life
from unicellular to multicellular autotrophic to heterotrophic asexual to sexual reproduction pathogenic to beneficial sessile to mobile
AP Biology
Mobility How Protists move
flagellum cilia pseudopod
AP Biology
Protist Diversity Animal-like Protists
heterotrophs, predators Amoeba Paramecium Stentor
Paramecium with food vacuoles stained red
Amoeba ingesting a Paramecium
AP Biology
Protist Diversity Plant-like Protists
autotrophs, photosynthesis Euglena algae diatoms
AP Biology
Protist Diversity Parasitic & pathogenic Protists

Plasmodium
Giardia
Trypanosoma
AP Biology
Protist Diversity Beneficial & necessary Protists
phytoplankton small algae + diatoms much of the world’s photosynthesis produces ~90% of atmospheric oxygen
zooplankton heterotrophic protists + animals key ecological role at base of
marine food web
Mmmmmm!Sounds like breakfast!
