Protists

Protists comes from Greek which means "The

First One",
this is given because Protists are considered to
be the first eukaryotes to evolve.

Protists consist of lower organisms that have

the same simple structure even though the
life cycle, cell organization and cell
division are different.

 Protists
Eukaryotic Aerobic respiration
cells that already have a true
nucleus protected by a double
membrane, and the organelles are Animal like protists use cellular
surrounded by a membrane respiration,

Plant-like protists can use

photosynthesis or cellular
respiration,

Fungi-like protists can use either

aerobic or anaerobic respiration.

Being unicellular, protists can also

simply rely on diffusion.

Some reproduce asexually and
sexually
Most of them are Unicellular, some form
Multicellular Protist Reproduction Asexual
reproduction occurs by mitosis.
Sexual reproduction involves the
exchange of genetic material across a
cytoplasmic bridge.

 Some live freely and some in
Protist Most live in water (sea or
symbiosis with other organisms. fresh), in lakes, ponds,
rivers and others.

Trichonympha (Flagellated protist) is example of a mutualistic

symbiosis protist that lives within the digestive system of termites
and makes it possible for the insects to digest wood. Fig 6. Dinoflagellates

 Protists Grouping
According to how to get their food protists can be divided into 2 groups:
Photoautotrophs Heterotrophs

Can make complex organic Cannot convert inorganic molecules

compounds from simple inorganic into organic ones, so they need
molecules using light energy. organic food from their environment
Example: Chlorophyta by eating other organisms.
Example: Rhizopoda
 Protists Grouping
According to their resemblance to higher kingdoms, protists are grouped into:

Animal-like Protists Plant-like Protists Fungi-like Protists

(Protozoa) (Algae) (Algae)
