1. Explain How does conjugation produce genetic diversity in a population of Paramecium
Compare and Contrast How does a macronucleus differ in function from a micronucleus
Compare and Contrast Compare asexual and sexual processes in paramecium- include the terms mitosis and meiosis

21.2 Protist Structure and Function

3. How Protists Move Change their cell shape Specialized organelles
Do not actively move.

4. Amoeboid Movement Move by changing their shape Pseudopods
Use of cytoplasmic projections
Powered by a cytoskeletal protein- actin.

5. Cilia and Flagella Cilia Short and numerous Move like oars on a boat
Ciliates.

6. Cilia and Flagella Flagella Long and usually one or two long
Spin or a wavelike motion from base to tip
Flagellates.

7. Passive Movement
Depend on air or water currents and other organisms to carry them around
Spores
Reproductive cells that can enter the cells of other organisms and live as parasites.

8. Protist Reproduction Asexually by mitosis
Combine asexual and sexual forms of reproduction.

9. Cell Division Many use mitosis Allows rapid reproduction
Produces genetically identical cell, which limits the genetic diversity.

10. Conjugation Two organisms exchange genetic material
Not a type of reproduction because no new individuals are formed
Sexual process because new combinations of genetic information are produced.

11. Macronucleus Micronucleus
Multiple copies of genes the cell uses in its day-to- day activities
Micronucleus
“Reserve copy” of every gene in the cell.

19. Alternation of Generations
Alternate between a diploid and a haploid phase.

20. Water molds grow into long branching filaments.

21. Sporangium
Structure that produces spores asexually.

22. Reproduce sexually by meiosis and form male and female structures
Haploid nuclei fuse during fertilization, forms a zygote and begins a new life cycle.
