Chapter 25.2, Problem 1MI
Summary Introduction
The protists belong to the members of kingdom Protista. It is generally made up of all single-celled, or unicellular organisms. Protists can be classified depending on their size, nature, shape, and number of cytoplasmic organelles, nuclear structure, presence of ecto or endoskeleton structures and so on. Amoebas, plasmodium, euglena, algae, and slime molds are examples of protists.

The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.arrow_forwardnot use ai pleasearrow_forward
