Use a prepared slide of Trypansoma and in the space below draw and label the: Magnification Red Blood cell Trypanosoma How does this organism move? ______________________________________________ What disease does this protozoan cause? ___________________________________ Use a prepared slide of Plasmodium and in the space below draw and label the: Magnification Red Blood cell Spore/Plasmodium How does this organism move? ______________________________________________ What disease does this protozoan cause? ___________________________________
Pond Water Make a wet mount of the pond water sample. List 3 organisms you can recognize based on the other Protists you have observed during this lab. 1. 2. 3. Slime Molds Observe the plate of Physarum under the stereoscope and draw what you see. Describe any movement you see (this is a plasmodial slime mold).
LABORATORY REVIEW 15 1. What are two major differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? (2pts) 2. List the two major types of nutrition and give an example of a protist with this type of nutrition. (2pts) Nutrition Examples 3. List the three different structures for locomotion found among protozoans, and name an organism that utilizes each structure. (2pts) Structure Organism Name 4. Name two characteristics of slime molds by stating their mode of nutrition and how they survive conditions unfavorable for growth. (2pts) 5. Could an ecosystem that contains only protists remain in continued existence? Why or why not? Think specifically about how the organisms would consume their food i.e. obtain energy for living. (2pts)

Chapter 16 Fungi Observe a prepared slide of Rhizopus, Aspergillus, and Penicillum . Draw and label the magnification and each fungal type. Prepare a wet mount slide of yeast, staining with either Iodine or Methylene Blue (CAUTION: these are both very strong stains, avoid contact with clothes and skin). Label: Magnification Bud Ascus Ascospore (if visible)
Observe the cup fungi on display under a stereoscope. Draw and label the: Magnification Pit Asci Observe the edible mushroom on display and label the following: Stalk Cap Gills Observe the lichens on display. Draw each example and label which is crustose, fruticose, and foliose.
View the mycorrhizae prepared slide. Draw and label the: Magnification Root Cell Mycorrhizae LABORATORY REVIEW 16 1. Both fungi and animals are heterotrophs although they are markedly different in how they acquire nutrients. Explain. (2pts) 2. Give the name of the sexual spore produced within or on each of the following structures, and cite the group of fungi. (4pts) Type of Spore Group Name a. Sporangium b. Ascus c. Basidium 3. Of what benefit are mycorrhizae to the plant? (2pts) 4. Explain the composition of lichens and why this composition is usually considered a mutualistic relationship. (2pts)
