Bio104 Laboratory ? Student?s Guide John Jay College, C.U.N.Y Lab #5 ? Page 1 Lab #5: Green Algae, Fungi, and Lichens I. More Protista a. Continuing from last week, this will lab will explore the Domain of Eukarya. Remember that the group of organisms commonly called ?protists? is not an actual taxon ? it?s a collection of many phyla. b. Some of the protists that we will examine today are the green algae. These single-celled organisms have a common ancestor with plants, and present-day algae share many features with the ancestor of plants. All green algae are technically unicellular organisms, but some form colonies with an impressive degree of organization.

Mica Piro Chapter 6: A Tour of the Cell Biologists Use Microscopes and the Tools of Biochemistry to Study Cells (6.1) Microscopy Microscopes first used by Renaissance scientists are all light microscopes (LM) Visible light passed through the specimen and then through glass lenses Lenses refract/bend the light so the image of the specimen is magnified as it is projected into the eye or into a camera Magnification: ratio of an object?s image size to its real size LMs can magnify about 1,000 times the actual size Higher magnification = less detailed image Resolution: a measure of the clarity of the image?minimum distance 2 points can be separated and still be distinguished as separate points Contrast: the difference in brightness between the light and dark areas of an image

Black Death Script In Medieval Europe, trading was very common. Ships would be in and out of ports every day, all day. This was going to change. In October 1347, 12 Genoese trading ships docked at the Sicilian port of Messina after a long journey through the Black Sea.. When the people gathered to greet the ships, they met the most horrifying surprise: many of the sailors aboard were dead or gravely ill. The people noticed mysterious black boils that oozed blood and pus. Seeing this, the people gave the mysterious illness ?Black Death?. Early Morning at home owners house: Berta is laying in her bed. She is over the covers.She is starting to wake up. Homeowners:: Why are you not up working? Get up this instant! Berta: I can?t get up. I don?t feel well.

-Can be modified or implanted from one species to another. -Faulty genes may be replaced through science. -Can be dominant or recessive. ? Light microscopes use combinations of lenses to provide clear images of living and preserved specimens up to 1500x their size. ? Electron microscopes magnify 100,000x but can't be used for living organisms. There are SEM and TEM. A tool that provides an enlarged image of an object. 1.4 Vocabulary Isabella Hardman Period 7 8/25/14

19.1: Protists The World of Protists What is a Protist? Kingdom Protista contains the most diverse group of organisms of all kingdoms Most are unicellular (diatoms), but some are multicellular (giant kelp). Some are heterotrophs, some are autotrophs and others are both. The characteristic that all protists share is that they are eukaryotes Protists are divided into animal-like protists, funguslike protists and plantlike protists. Protozoa: animal-like protist, all are unicellular Algae: plant-like protists, do not have roots, stems and leaves Unicellular algae produce most of the world?s oxygen and are the basis for aquatic food chains Fungus-like protists are able to move at some point in their life and do not have chitin in their cell walls What is a protozoan?
