1. Protists!!

2. Welcome  Bienvenidos 
What is the difference between an autotroph and a heterotroph?
Think of two examples of autotrophs and two examples of heterotrophs.
What is the difference between single-celled and multicellular organisms?
Give me three examples of single-celled organisms!

3. Inside of every drop of pond water…
WOW!!!!

4. The mysterious lives of pond creatures!!
Stand up if you see a creature you recognize!

5. Get their energy from eating other organisms
Heterotroph
Get their energy from eating other organisms
Ex. Humans, animals
Autotroph:
Get their energy from the sun
Ex. Plants, protists

6. Organisms made of many cells Ex. Humans, animals
Single-celled
Organisms made of 1 cell.
Ex. Bacteria, protists
Multi-cellular
Organisms made of many cells
Ex. Humans, animals

7. Asexual Reproduction:
1 parent to reproduce – dividing, replicating, etc.
Sexual Reproduction:
2 parents – combining egg and sperm.

8. PROTISTS are…
SINGLE-CELLED!!

9. ALL PROTISTS are…
EUKARYOTIC
Which means they have a NUCLEUS!!!

10. Amoeba (Blob Shape Shifters)
Lives… Ponds, dead and decaying organisms
Heterotroph
Locomotion: use PSUEDOPODS (false feet)
Reproduces…Asexual Reproduction

The most complex!

14. Euglena Lives…Ponds, freshwater Autotroph AND heterotroph
Lives…Ponds, freshwater
Autotroph AND heterotroph
Locomotion: Moves with flagella (tail)
Reproduces…Asexual Reproduction

15. Euglena Single-celled or multicellular? Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic?
