1. Red tide—population explosion of
certain types of dinoflagellates.
Kills large amounts of fish.
Depletes water of oxygen and
releases toxins into the water.
Apicomplexans
• Apicomplexans
– Are parasites of animals and some cause
serious human diseases
– Are so named because one end, the apex,
contains a complex of organelles specialized
for penetrating host cells and tissues
– Have a nonphotosynthetic plastid, the
apicoplast

Stramenopiles
• Stramenopiles have “hairy” and smooth
flagella
• The clade Stramenopila
– Includes several groups of heterotrophs as
well as certain groups of algae
• Most stramenopiles
– Have a “hairy” flagellum paired with a
“smooth” flagellum during some part of
their life cycle

phytoplankton

Brown Algae
• Brown algae, or phaeophytes
– Are the largest and most complex algae
– Are all multicellular, and most are marine

Alternation of Generations
• A variety of life cycles
– Have evolved among the multicellular algae
• The most complex life cycles include an
alternation of generations
– The alternation of multicellular haploid and
diploid forms

7. Algae
Red algae and green algae are the closest
relatives of land plants
• Over a billion years ago, a heterotrophic
protist acquired a cyanobacterial
endosymbiont
– And the photosynthetic descendants of this
ancient protist evolved into red algae and
green algae
Red Algae
• Red algae
– Are usually multicellular; the largest are
seaweeds
– Are the most abundant large algae in coastal
waters of the tropics
(b) Dulse (Palmaria palmata). This edible
species has a “leafy” form.
(c) A coralline alga. The cell walls of
coralline algae are hardened by calcium
carbonate. Some coralline algae are
members of the biological communities
around coral reefs.
(a) Bonnemaisonia hamifera. This red alga
has a filamentous form.

8. Red Algae
• Red algae are reddish in color
– Due to an accessory pigment call
phycoerythrin, which masks the green of
chlorophyll
Green Algae
• Two groups – Chlorophytes &
Charophytes
• All have chlorophylls a & b
• Some are symbionts
Green Algae
• Chlorophytes
8
9. • Most chlorophytes
– Live in fresh water, although many are
marine
• Other chlorophytes
– Live in damp soil, as symbionts in lichens, or
in snow

11. Amoebozoa
• Amoebozoans have lobe-shaped
pseudopodia
• Amoebozoans
– Are amoeba that have lobe-shaped, rather
than threadlike, pseudopodia
– Include gymnamoebas, entamoebas, and
slime molds
