Document Summary
Chlorophyll c: in addition to chlorophyll a. No phycobilisomes: haptophtya, stramenopile algae, dinoflagellates, periplastic endoplasmic reticulum. Surrounds the plastid: haptophyte and stramenopile plastids. Usually with scales: microtubule-supported tentacle used for feeding and attachment, carbohydrate of mineralized coccoliths. When cells die, they sink to deep ocean and pull carbon down with them (in the calcium carbonate scales) Diverse: very small to very large, algae, protozoa, pseudo-fungi", unique flagellar hairs. Extracellular protein tube sticking out from the cell membrane. Swims in opposite direction than expected due to these hairs. Flagellar beating causes a reverse effect moves towards the flagellum not away from. Diatoms: unicellular/colonial, non-flagellate (except sometimes in gametes, while reproducing asexually, no flagella. Only present during sexual cycle: frustule. Made from epitheca and hypotheca that overlap. Hypo is the inner of the two halves. Theca comprised of valves and strips around edge called girdle bands.
