the building block of life; all living organisms are made out of these

these organelles hold the genetic material in eukaryotic cells

cells without a nucleus

cells with a nucleus

organelle that only plant cells have

an organelle in a plant cell that contains chlorophyll and allows plants to go through photosynthesis

single-celled, microscopic organisms that are prokaryotic; they are everywhere; they can be good or bad

mostly unicellular organisms (some are multi-cellular) who usually live in moist places; examples are euglena, paramecium, and amoeba

Different types of protists

organisms that have to go find food; they obtain nutrients outside of themselves

organisms that make their own food (photosynthesis)

a form of locomotion for protists; a long whip-like tail used to move and/or catch food

a form of locomotion for protists; uses small hair-like projections on the surface (cell membrane) of the cell to sweep food into mouth-like structures and/or beat them in rhythm to move

a form of locomotion for protists; a finger-like projection of the cell membrane and cytoplasm used to catch food and/or movement

microorganisms such as yeast, mold, and mushrooms

when fungi get their energy from decaying organic matter

when fungi feed on other living organisms (host) and harm the host

when fungi feed on other living organisms (host) and do not harm the host

long fibrous strands that allow fungi to obtain nutrients and water

a mass of hyphae

the organelle with a nucleus-like structure in a bacteria cell that contains the genetic material

Common shapes of bacteria
