Types of Cells • Eukaryotic Cell: • Prokaryotic Cell:
Domain Archaea and Bacteria • Single-celled • No organelles • Circular DNA • Small ribosomes http://coursev4files.cod.edu/fancher/ProkaryoticCellLabeled.jpg
Domain Eukarya • Single-celled or multicellular organisms • DNA is linear and found within a nucleus • Most have additional membrane-bound organelles • Large ribosomes
Brown Algae and Diatoms: Chlorophylls a and c and fucoxanthin
Red Algae: chlorophylls a & d, and the pigment phycoerythrin
Using a Dichotomous Key 1a. Pointed ears………...go to 2 1b. Rounded ears……….go to 4 2a. Yellow fur……………Rabbit 2b. Not yellow fur……….go to 3 3a. Stands on 2 legs........Piglet 3b. Stands on 4 legs…….Eeyore 4a. Has stripes…………….Tigger 4b. Does not have stripes…Winnie the Pooh
Now in the plant kingdom: Green Algae (shared characteristics: chlorophylls a & b, cell wall with cellulose, and similar gametes and life cycle)
