Using Paramecium as an example, explain how a protist eats, respires, digests food, reproduces, and maintains an internal
water balance (osmoregulation), all within its single-celled body.
Consider things about sponges and Cnidarians.
a) Pick one of these two groups, and state how they are important to their ecosystems (name which one you are discussing)
b) Pick one of these two groups and state how they help humans directly (name which group you are discussing).
Use the table to answer the following question.
Organism
Appearance
Habitat/Activity
Nutrient Acquisition
Reproduction
A
Microscopic, unicellular, with a flagellum
Swims around in freshwater pools
Envelops and consumes other microscopic organisms
Mates with others; young bud off
B
Shaped like a basketball, covered with purple filaments, multicellular
Rolls slowly across grassy fields
Thrives with access to only freshwater and sunlight
Mates with others; young emerge from hardened spherical structures
C
Hard and branched, multicellular, covered in a sticky coating
Attached to rocky surfaces
Traps insects in sticky coating and ingests them
No mating; releases winged young that fly off and affix to bare rocks
D
Multicellular with cell walls
Mostly sessile
Absorption from the environment
Disperses spores ballistically
A researcher is studying animals on a previously undiscovered island, home to many unfamiliar organisms, and decides to survey them using the research…

The student placed key characteristics in each circle and classmates are asked to review the work. Fungi Only Animals Only Both May be multicellular or unicellular Eukaryotic Multicellular Can reproduce asexually or sexually No cell wall Has a cell wall Heterotrophic Which feedback would be the MOST accurate? O A. "All animals only reproduce sexually so you need to move 'may reproduce sexually or asexually 'to fungi only." B. "You need to move the term heterotroph to the 'animals' circle because fungi can be heterotrophic or autotrophic." C. "You have all of the information correct." O D. "You should remove 'has a cell wall' because neither fungi nor animals have a cell wall.arrow_forwardLabel the following as Porifera, Cnidaria or Both: -Composed of radial symmetry. -Composed of asymmetrical assemblage. -Do not have true tissue present. -True tissue present. -Possess flagellated cells called choanocytes. -Name of gelatinous matrix is mesoglea. -Name of gelatinous matrix is mesenchyme. -They use both intra and extra cellular digestion. -They use intracellular digestion. -Under stress they release aggregates of amoebocytes for reproduction. -Their asexual reproduction is through budding. -Their body wall possess two cellular layers.arrow_forward
