Foundations of Biology: Evolution, Ecology, and Biodiversity Lab Protists Worksheet EXERCISES (Answer all questions in bold) Exercise 1 – Protozoans (Animal-Like Protists) Protozoans are all unicellular and heterotrophic—they ingest their food just like animals do. Although generally found in freshwater habitats, there are some marine, damp terrestrial, and endosymbiotic protozoans. The four main groups of protozoans are distinguished from each other based on their mode of locomotion. Ciliated Protozoans
: Ciliated protozoans move by beating in unison the many small cilia that surround their unicellular bodies. Paramecium
(Ciliates)
is a classic example of a ciliated protozoan. 1.
Examine the model of Paramecium on display in the lab room. Draw the model in your notebook, labeling the various organelles. What is the relationship between the oral groove, the gullet, and the food vacuoles? 4-oral groove 1
4
6- food vacual 5-gullet 8-radiating canal 7-contractile vacuale 10- Maconuclues 9- micronucleus 14-anal pore 2-lysaszome 1-cytoplasm 15-cudual tuft 12-cilia The relationship between things like the gullet, food vacuole, and oral groove would be used for ingestion and digestion of food. 2.
Observe a prepared slide of Paramecium under a compound microscope set up on your lab bench. Draw it below or insert a photograph. Are any of the structures that you saw on the model visible under the scope? 2
After observing the prepared slide, the only structures that can be seen compared to the first model would be things like the Macro nucleus which are the dark circles seen, in the picture. 3.
Prepare a wet mount of some live Paramecium specimens. Describe below how they move. Draw and/or insert a photograph below. 3
The way the specimen moves is in a flowing pattern with the Cillia helping the Paramecium glide through the slide in a way that almost looks fake. It seems also that the Paramecium has to back up to change directions which is interesting. Flagellated Protozoans
: Flagellated protozoans move by beating their long, whip-like flagella. One example of a flagellated protozoan is Trichonympha
(Parabasalids), the protist that lives mutualistically within 4
the guts of termites, breaking down cellulose and lignin and therefore enabling the termites to digest wood. 1.
A prepared slide of Trichonympha
is set up as a demonstration under a compound microscope in the lab room. Draw it below or insert a photograph. Most flagellated protozoans possess only one or a few flagellas. How does Trichonympha
differ from a typical flagellated protozoan? The way Trichonympha differs from Typical protozoan would be that it is covered in flagella which helps it get around in its environment, while typical protozoan only have one or a few. 5
Amoeboid Protozoans
: Amoeboid protozoans move and feed by means of cytoplasmic extensions known as pseudopodia. The classic example of an amoeboid protozoan is of course Amoeba
(Gymnamoebas). 1.
Examine the model of Amoeba on display in the lab room. Draw the model below or insert a photograph, labeling the various organelles. What is the name of the process used by Amoeba
’s pseudopodia to feed? The name of the process of Amoeba’s feeding would be phagocytosis. 6

After attending the Protista lab (Lab 2) of BIOL2101 course, and seeing all the amazingly different
Protists that can be found in a single drop of natural water sources; Mohammed get excited to see
the different types of protists that might be found in water from rain paddles in his family farm in
Al-Seeb, therefore, he took a sample to a Biology lab at SQU.
Mohammed added a drop of water on a slide and covered it with a coverslip. Then he observed
the slide under the microscope (40x) and took pictures for the following microorganisms:

Please help to answer and also provide a step-by-step explanation:
Movement is a type of response to stimuli. Many unicellular organisms can move in response to chemical changes outside the cell – amoeba exhibits locomotion, paramecium use cilia to get around. Protists such as the Amoeba and the Paramecium are important to our discussion of evolution because of their ability to respond to changes in the environment. These single-celled eukaryotes have this ability because a) their DNA responds to stimuli from the environment, b) they have the same germ cell layers that the Cnidaria have, c) new proteins, located in the cell membrane, have shapes and charge patterns that react to a stimulus by generating an electrical impulse. d) they have a Golgi Apparatus that measures the stimulus from the environment, e) none of these are possible.

Lab 10: Kingdom Animalia Introduction Animals all share some characteristics:
1) Multicellular
2) Heterotrophic
3) Their cells have no cell wall
4) At some time in their life they are motile.
There are many phyla within the animal Kingdom, and in this activity, you will explore these phyla by building a dichotomous key that will allow you to consider almost any animal and determine which phylum it belongs to.
Part 1: Organizing information for the dichotomous key 1) List the 9 animal phyla of macroscopic (visible) animals: Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Nemotoda, Annelida, Arthropoda, Mollusca, Echinodermata, and Chordata. 2) Use on-line or library resources of your choice, to gather information about these 9 phyla.
a. Start by finding two example species per phylum to help tie into your previous knowledge about animal types. Write down these examples.
b. Make a list of characteristics that you could use that would help you tell these 9 phyla apart. The final goal is to build a…
