Document Summary

Eukaryotic microorganisms: protozoa, fungi, algae, slime molds, water molds. Includes both human pathogens & organisms vital for human life. Reproduction in eukaryotes: nuclear division, nucleus has one or two complete copies of genome, single copy (haploid, most fungi, many algae, some protozoa, two copies (diploid) Include plants, animals, fungi, algae & protozoa: two types, mitosis, meiosis. Mitosis: cell partitions replicated dna equally b/t two nuclei, maintains ploidy of parent nucleus, 4 phase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase. Meiosis: nuclear division that partitions chromatins into 4 nuclei, diploid nuclei produce haploid daughter nuclei, two stages- meiosis i & meiosis ii, each stage has 4 phases, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase. Cytokinesis (cytoplasmic division: typically occurs simulataneously with telophase of mitosis, results in multinucleated cells called coenocytes. I(cid:374) so(cid:373)e algae & fu(cid:374)gi, postpo(cid:374)es or does(cid:374)"t occur at all. Protozoa: diverse group defined by three characteristics, eukaryotic, unicellular, lack a cell wall, motile by means of cilia, flagella &/or pseudopods, except a subgroup: apicomplexans.
