Textbook Question
Chapter 28, Problem 9TYU
WRITE ABOUT A THEME: INTERACTIONS Organisms interact with each other and the physical environment. In a short essay (100–150 words), explain how the response of diatom populations to a drop in nutrient availability can affect both other organisms and aspects of the physical environment (such as carbon dioxide concentrations).

Characterize the animal-like protists (protozoa) based on the following parameters.
Describe at least one adaptation that allows a) planktonic organisms such as diatoms or jellyfish to stay in the photo zone (where light penetrates the water), and b) marine birds to thrive in the salt marsh/tidal environment.
A clinical microbiologist is studying a microbe that can cause infections and gastrointestinal disease in humans, and which can also survive and reproduce in mice. A dormant cyst form of the microbe infects human hosts through fecal-oral transmission if they come in contact with mouse droppings and don’t wash their hands before eating. The organism grows in long filaments when grown at 20-28 deg C, and forms round/ovoid cells when grown at temperatures above 28 deg C. Sexual reproduction (fusion of haploid gametes) occurs in both humans and mice. A cell wall is present, and cells contain nuclei. This microbe could be which of the following?
Bacterium
Fungus
Virus
Protozoan

- . This flowchart helps distinguish among organisms by asking questions that have one of two possible answers. As a result, this flowchart can also be called a dichotomous key (from Greek dikho- 'in two' + temnein 'to cut').
