What Are Protists?
Author: Kate MikoleyPublisher: Gareth Stevens Publishing LLLP
ISBN: 1538248662
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 32
Book Description
When people think of life forms, they often think of animals and plants. Not all organisms fit into these two groups. Protists are a hugely diverse group of organisms. They are usually tiny and made up of just a single cell. This valuable resource features colorful photographs that correlate very closely to details of the narrative, encouraging readers to develop a deeper understanding of the book's material as well as key concepts related to elementary life science curricula.
Kingdoms of Life - Protista (eBook)
Author: Gina HamiltonPublisher: Lorenz Educational Press
ISBN: 0787783331
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
Milliken's Kingdoms of Life series is aligned with national science standards and reflects current teaching practices. Each book includes approximately 50 black and white reproducible pages, 12 full-color transparencies (print books) or PowerPoint slides (eBooks), comprehension questions and lab activities for each unit, an answer key, a glossary of bolded terms, a timeline of biological discovery, a laboratory safety guide, as well as a national standards correlation chart. Protista details the structure and behavior of protists — distinguished from monera principally by being composed of so-called "true cells" (eukaryotes), or cells containing a distinct nucleus. Protists can be either unicellular or multicellular and include most algae and some fungi.
The Discoveries and Artistic Talents of Édouard Chatton and André Lwoff, Famous Biologists
Author: Marie-Odile Soyer-GobillardPublisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527555542
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
This book explores the life, work and careers of two lovers of marine biology and protists, Edouard Chatton (1883-1947) and his exceptional pupil André Lwoff (1902-1994), later a Nobel Prize winner. Offering descriptions of their discoveries and explanations of their artistic talents, it also presents (annotated in numbers for the first time) the beautiful educational course boards made by Chatton for his students and collaborators. This book will appeal to scientists, biologists, parasitologists, researchers, teachers, and students, and is a tribute to these two great scientists.
Protozoans, Algae & Other Protists
Author: Steve ParkerPublisher: Capstone
ISBN: 0756542243
Category : Algae
Languages : en
Pages : 26
Book Description
This book introduces you to creatures from the protist kingdom, from microscopic protozoans to seaweedlike algae. It examines the parts, life cycle, and reproduction of various types of protists. It also looks at the harmful effects some protists have on humans. Did You Know? The deadly disease malaria is caused in part by the protist Plasmodium. The fossils of one type of protist, the red algae, date back more than 500 million years. Paramecium, a well known protist, uses hairlike cilia to sweep food into its mouth.

Protist Diversity and Geographical Distribution
Author: W. FoissnerPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9048128013
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
Conservation and biodiversity of protists The conservation of biodiversity is not just an issue of plants and vertebrates. It is the scarcely visible invertebrates and myriads of other microscopic organisms that are crucial to the maintenance of ecological processes on which all larger organisms and the composition of the atmosphere ultimately depend. Biodiversity and Conservation endeavours to take an holistic view of biodiversity, and when the opportunity arises to issue collections of papers dealing with too-often neglected groups of organisms. The protists, essentially eukaryotes that cannot be classi?ed in the kingdoms of animals, fungi, or plants, include some of the lea- known groups of organisms on earth. They are generally treated as a separate kingdom, commonly named Protista (or Protoctista) in textbooks, but in reality they are a mixture of organisms with disparate a?nities. Some authors have hypothesized that the numbers of protists are not especially large, and that many have extraordinarily wide distributions. However, the p- ture that unfolds from the latest studies discussed in this issue is di?erent. There are many species with wide ranges, and proportionately more cosmopolitan species than in macroorganism groups, as a result of their long evolutionary histories, but there are also de?nite patterns and geographical restrictions to be found. Further, some protists are linked to host organisms as mutualists or parasites and necessarily con?ned to the distributions of their hosts.
