Biology 110-12 . 1. What are the five kingdoms and give a brief description of each kingdom? Answer: Monera- Single celled prokaryotes;bacteria Protista - Mostly single celled eukaryotes; Photoautotrophs (algae) and heterotrophs (protozoa) Fungi-Multicellular eukaryotes that feed by extracellular digestion and absorption Heterotrophs: includes decomposers‚ many pathogens and parasites Plantae-Multicellular photosynthetic autotrophs producers Animalia- Diverse multicellular heterotrophs Range from

Experiment 1 Cyanobacteria Oxygen Production Through Photosynthesis Date Performed: September 2‚ 2014 I. Introduction a. Background Cyanobacteria or blue green algae are renowned for their tolerability and susceptibility even in wide range of environmental conditions‚ a characteristic of many primitive organisms. CNB are believed to be the agents of autotrophic origin of life thus they probably represent the survivors of the earliest photosynthetic plants‚ along with photosynthetic and chemosynthetic

Brown algae have xanthophyll pigments that mask the green color of the chlorophyll. Green algae have cholorphylls a and b that give a bright green color. l. All algae have chlorophyll. 7. m.

words of joy‚ they skipped merrily along the drain. The wind howled angrily. The choppy waves started rising. The wet floor was covered with blackish puddles and shoe prints. The hard concrete walls in the canal were decorated with slimy green algae. Occasionally‚ a rat scuttled past before dropping into the drain noiselessly. As one of them took a plastic water bottle‚ he ran leaping up and down with joy. Just then he landed. Unfortunately‚ he slipped on a black banana peel that was by the drain

overfishing contributes to the declination of coral reefs. We need to take action to remove overfishing near these corals because corals are vital to the ecosystem‚ helping us learn the health of the ocean. Taking out fishes near these corals will help algae growth‚ which leads to coral dying more.

Off the Caribbean coast of Belize‚ between Mexico and Guatemala‚ lies the Belize Barrier Reef‚ the largest reef in the northern and western hemispheres. The reef is home to many species of coral reefs‚ coastal lagoons‚ seagrass meadows‚ and mangrove forests. It provides a habitat for a large number of fish species and many endangered animals. With global warming issues‚ local activities‚ and mass tourism threatening the very existence of the reef‚ the United Nations Educational‚ Scientific and Cultural

coral bleaching that has occurred this summer. Coral Bleaching is when corals are stressed from phenomena such as warmer-than-average waters for an extended period of time. The corals‚ which are actually little organisms called coral polyps‚ expel the algae that lend them their color and provide them with food‚ giving the coral a bleached appearance.

colored; this is where their name comes from. The fins are orange with streaks of green branching towards the back and tail. They have teeth that are merged to form a tough parrot-like beak‚ which is also where they get their name‚ is used to rake algae and other organic materials from the outside of coral. Endangered Status: The parrotfish population is nearly threatened. Parrotfish have different choices in habitat
