19
Q

Protozoa are ________ and require their food in complex organic form

A

Heterotrophic

20
Q

Free living Protozoa

A

Scavenge dead plants or animal debris, or graze on live cells of bacteria and algae

21
Q

Parasitic Protozoa

A

Live on fluids of the host such as plasma and digestive juices, may actively feed on tissue.

22
Q

Pseudopods

A

(False feet) amoeboid motion (movement)

23
Q

Cilia

A

A style of locomotion, distributed over the entire surface of the cell in characteristic patterns

24
Q

Four types of locomotion in Protozoa

A

Flagellum
Pseudopod
Cilia
Cryptosporidium

25
Protozoa trophozoite
A motile feeding stage which require ample food and moisture to remain active
26
Cyst Protozoa
A dormant resting stage, when conditions become unfavorable for growth and feeding. Sometimes an important factor in the spread of disease.
