BISC 261 prelab 1 Test with Questions
with 100% Correct Answers
supergroup unikonta - Answer composed of heterotrophs and includes
amoebas, animals, fungi and others, diverged from other eukaryotic lineages
gymnamoebas and entamoebas - Answer what are the two main groups of amoebas?
gymnamoebas - Answer freeliving in marine, freshwater, and soil environments
entamoebas - Answer parasitic amoebas
fungi - Answer nonmotile eukaryotes, cell walls made of chitin, and are absorptive
heterotrophs, as they secrete exoenzymes into the environment and then absorb the
digest nutrients
unicellular yeasts and filamentous molds - Answer fungi are divided into ____________
based off of appereance
supergroup excavata - Answer unicellular species that usually have a feeding groove
excavated from one side of the cell and possess one or more flagella. many species have
, a life cycle in which there is an active feeding stage (trophozoite) and an inert
resting stage (cyst)
parabasalids, diplomonads, euglenozoans - Answer what are the 3 subgroups
of supergroup excavata?
euglenozoans - Answer unicellular, green, photosynthetic autotrophs when light
is available, but can live heterotrophically when it is not (mixotrophic)
supergroup achaeplastida - Answer members of this group are all descended from an
ancestor that engulfed a cyanobacterium (by primary endosymbiosis) which
ultimately evolved into the chloroplasts of green and red algae and true plants, all
members are autotrophic and possess walls made of cellulose
chlorophytes and charophytes - Answer what are the subgroups of supergroup
archaeplastida?
chlorophytes - Answer commonly called green algae, most are freshwater and
unicellular, filamentous, or colonial species. flagella are commonly used for motility
charophytes - Answer closely related to chlorophytes, but even more closely related
to true plants
SAR supergroup - Answer diverse group joined because of strong similarities in
DNA sequences of the entire genome
alveolates - Answer may be either heterotrophic or autotrophic, but they all have
small, membranous sacs beneath their cytoplasmic membrane
