week 7 friday 31/10/2014

Today is Friday, the end of October we have 3 hour 30 minutes lecture of microbiology.we need to complete topics on protists and algae . algae can be classified into chrysophyta, euglenophyta, pyrrhophyta,charophyta, chlorophyta,phaeophyta and rhodophyta. In aquatic , algae can be found in 3 types which is planktonic, benthic, neustonic while in terrestrial in can be found at moist rocks, trees and soil. Algal reproduction can be divide into asexually and sexually . in asexual, there is
-fragmentation,
- spores
- binary fission.
The flagellated motile spore is zoospores and non motile spore is aplanospores. In algal ecology provide habitat for marine community and also human food or to make various products. Algae cause alga bloom which high nutrition cause by dead animal,fish in the lake. Production of neurotoxin by algae is harmful to vertebrates
Chlorophyta

Rhidophyta

Phaeophyta

Chrysophyta

Pyrrophyta

Euglenophyta

Slime molds is resemble fungi in appearance and life style . there are 3 types in slime molds which is myxomycota,acrasiomycota and peronosporomycetes. Function of slime molds as decomposer and consumer in ecosystem and recycling of nutritions


In fungi, the characteristic is no cholophyll,primary storage as glycogen and produce sexually and asexually.fungi important in fermentation,organic acids, certain drug, antibiotics and immunosuppressive agents.
This is structure of fungi


The three feeding form of fungi which is
Saprobic heterotrophy-eat on dead material
Parasitic heterotrophs-feed on host
Mutualistic heterotrophs-feed on host without damaging host
Asexual reproduction
Sexual reproduction


This is types of fungi
1)chytrides
2)zygote
3)sac
4)club
5)microsporidia

Next, we learn on mycorrhizae means mutualistic association plant root and fungi. Lichen is an association of fungus and a photosynthetics symbiont resulting in stable thallus of specific structure.lichen serve as indicators of ecological health of an area.this is video on the fungi
