Protista
Crysophyta
Diatom
It is microscopic and is mostly a golden color.
It has a cell wall with silica (note #1 in pic).


Protista
Chlorophyta
Spirogyra with oxygen bubbles from undergoing photosynthesis
It undergoes sexual reproduction
They are isogamists (sexes unknown)
They have spiraling chloroplasts


Protista
Chlorophyta
Oedogonium
It is heterogamous
Can tell the difference in sexes
Male gamete- antheridium sperm (#1 in pic)
Female gamete- oogonium egg (#2 in pic)



Protista
Phaeophyta
Brown Algae Fucus
Some parts they have are: the hold fast, stipe, thallus, air bladder, conceptacles, and receptacles.
The swollen ends are called receptacles.
Receptacles contain the conceptacles, represented by little dots on the end.
Inside the conceptacles are the antheridium and oogonium.


Protista
Chlorophyta
Spirogyra
It undergoes sexual repoduction or conjugation.
It has spiral chloroplast.
They are isogamies- The sexes can not be distinguished.


Protista
Algae
It is found in damp shaded environments.
They are formed from spores.
Very colorful.
The adult algae are non-motile.
They have chlorophyll (photosynthesis)
They are autotrophic
Varieties of sizes.


Protista
Crysophyta
Vaucheria
Yellow-green algae
Their parts: 1) The conjugation tube, 2) The antheridia, & 3) The oogonium
They reproduce asexually



Protista
Chlorophyta
Spirogyra
They are isogamic
They have sexual reproduction
1) Conjugation tube
2) Zygote
3) Chloroplast


Protista
Phylum Protozoa.
Ciliata
Paramecium
Binary Fission is occurring in the slide.
Has cilia hairlike motion.
