Pond Water Protozoans: Identification and Labels

This objective of this lesson is to teach students how to recognize and label different protozoans commonly found in pond water, including Sarcodine and Ciliate protozoans. Students will also survey representatives of animal-like protozoans such as Mastigophora, Sarcodina, Labyrinthomorpha, Apicomplexa, Microspora, Acetospora, Myxozoa, and Ciliophora.

  1. Today’s Objective: 10/31/02 • TSW be able to recognize protozoans commonly found in pond water. • TSW label a diagram of two protozoans (Sarcodine and Ciliate) • TSW survey representatives of each of the animal-like protozoans.

  2. Phylum Sarcomastigophora

  3. Sarcomastigophora • Have flagella, pseudopodia or both • Subphylum Mastigophora • One or more flagella • Volvox, Giardia, Trypanosoma, Euglena • Subphylum Sarcodina • Pseudopods • Amoeba, Radiolarians

  4. Phylum Labyrinthomorpha

  5. Labyrinthomorpha • Marine or estuarine • Saprozoic or parasitic on marine plants • Labyrinthula

  6. Phylum Apicomplexa

  7. Apicomplexa • Parasitic • Apical complex – penetrates host cells • Plasmodium, Toxoplasma

  8. Phylum Microspora

  9. Microspora • Single-celled spores • Intracellular parasites • Nosema

  10. Phylum Acetospora

  11. Acetospora • Multicellular spores • Parasitic to only invertebrates • Haplosporidium

  12. Phylum Myxozoa

  13. Myxozoa • Multicellular spores • Parasitic • Myxosoma

  14. Phylum Ciliophora

  15. Ciliophora • Lots of cilia • Heterotrophs • Macronucleus and micronucleus • Paramecium, Stentor, Euplotes, Vorticella
