These microorganisms are used to teach us how multicellular organisms came to be and how they can survive today. These small, microscopic organisms are so unique that the identification of them is paramount in the advancements of science. Knowing the chemical makeup, the shape, and the biochemical processes is important in identifying these organisms to understand how they survive and where. A number of tests can be ran on an unknown bacteria to determine their ideal
The purpose of this study is to understand the feeding rate of Daphnia magna. D. magna is a species of Daphnia that belongs to the suborder Cladocera (Ebert, 2005). They live in freshwater and feed on small, suspended particles in the surrounding water. They are filter feeders. Leaf-like appendages, called phyllopods provide a filtering apparatus for the collection of food.
Each ecosystem has their own biodiversity, differing themselves from other ecosystems. In our experiment we are revisiting how the intensity of light effects the movements of Gammarus setosus. From J. M. WeEsøawski, M. ZajaÎczkowski, J. Wiktor (1997) report, when there are Macrofauna taxa and Macrophytes, there would a frequent amount of Gammarus setosus. With this we can conclude that Gammarus setosus plays a large role in the food chain. By getting more information of the Gammarus setosus we able to get more information for future research into the how prey and predation with the Gammarus setosus.
In both the Metamorphoses and The Bacchae, there is an emphasis on the relationship between god and man. First, in the Metamorphoses, each story describes a transformation. In many of the stories, the gods are involved in the transformations of humans to animals as the result of an obstruction of power between the two (Ovid 194). Likewise, The Bacchae also exhibits physical transformations as one of its main themes. Again, this involves the power of a god being inserted over humans (Euripides 56).
Ciliates were the first organism we found in our sample. They dominated the sample. My group and I also saw a moderate amount of rotifers, colpoda, and vorticella in our sample. We then took our petri dish with the rest of our sample and let it dry out
This idea of classifications before there was phylogeny did not touch base until after the theory of evolution was distributed. The present arrangement of phylogeny depends on the grouping framework created via Carolus Linnaeus, a naturalist who partitioned things into classifications. These classes were given a name and depended on the physical attributes of the living being. The present framework incorporates eight noteworthy positions: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. Each known life form is arranged into these positions.
The organism that I have chosen is the Sea Wasp, which is a species of Box Jellyfish (Cubozoa). The Sea Wasp is classified by eight different groups within its taxonomy, which are the: domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. The Domain of this specific organism is Eukarya, the kingdom of the organism is Animalia, the phylum of the organism is Cnidaria, the class of the organism is the Cubozoa, the order of the organism is the Chirodropida, the family of the organism is Chirodropidae, the genus of the organism is Chironex, the species name is C. fleckeri, the Scientific name of the organism is Chironex Fleckeri, and the common name of the organism is the Sea Wasp (“Chironex fleckeri Marine Stinger, Sea Wasp”). The
Oceanic protists with different forms of acquired phototrophy display contrasting biogeographies and abundance. In Proc. R. Soc. B. 284(1860): 1-6. Moriarty, R., and O'Brien, T. D. (2013).
Domain: Eukarya This domain contains all organisms that have eukaryotic cells, including members of the kingdoms Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. This means that they store DNA in the nucleus within each of their cells. Kingdom: Animalia All members of this kingdom are multicellular and heterotrophic, in other words, they are consumers. They do not have cell walls, and most of them are mobile for at least some part of their lives. Aside from these characteristics, kingdom Animalia is incredibly diverse.
Their subfamily is Phaenicophaeinae. The meaning of a
Introduction Approximately 530 million years ago, there was a rapid diversification of animal species. In this relatively short evolutionary event, most major phyla appeared. The term Cambrian Explosion describes the geologically sudden appearance of multi-cellular animals in the fossil record. Pre-Cambrian organisms consisted of prokaryotes, eukaryotes, bacteria and ediacaran life forms. In less than 5 million years, most of the basic body plans that we observe in modern groups appeared; cnidarians, molluscs, arthropods, echinoderms and the chordates all came on to the scene.
Species is a sub division genera, this classification was developed by Carolus Linnaeus grouping by visual similarities. Within these classifications there will be populations of the species. Population ”a
The five kingdoms of life are monea, protista, fungi, plantae , and animalia, which include animas like clams. Within the Animalia kingdom that are different groups, each which are called phylums, and clams are considered in the phylum group known as mollusks. Mollusks which derive from the latin word mollis, means "soft". In the world ther are 1500 different kinds of mollusks whome are grouped into six different classes. One of these classes are called bivalves, which are aquatic mollusks because they their shells close together along their upper midline.
A phylogeny is the branch of biology that deals with phylogenies, also it is a visual representation of evolutionary history and enable to reconstruct a phylogeny is to be able to analyze the similarities in characteristics of different organisms. Cladistics is a classification of animals and plants according to the characteristics that these organisms have in common. The more characteristics they share, the better you can make the conclusion that they have a common ancestor. A monophyletic group is an organism(s) that comes from a common ancestor that is not shared with any other. Synapomorphy is a characteristic in an ancestral species and shared by their evolutionary successor.
Fungi, is also an example of microbial life. They are unicellular or multicellular eukaryotes and are made up of a mass of threadlike hyphae forming mycelium. The cell wall are made from chitin. A mushroom is an example of
