In a polar covalent bond how are the electrons being distributed in the molecule? The atoms with the greatest pull on the shared electrons will cause the electrons to swarm around them more than the weaker atoms. 14. In a non-polar covalent bond how are the electrons being distributed in the molecule? The atoms involved have an equal pull on the shared electrons and consequently the electrons are equally distributed between the two or more atoms.

  • ALGAE Algae Are Photosynthetic Eukaryotes with a Wide Variety of Shapes That Occur in Most Habitats, Ranging from Marine And
    ALGAE Algae are photosynthetic eukaryotes with a wide variety of shapes that occur in most habitats, ranging from marine and freshwater to desert sands and from hot boiling springs to snow and ice belonging to Kingdom Protista. Algae vary from small, single-celled forms (filamentous) to most complex multicellular forms. They are not plants, they are more plantlike than protozoa. Algae lack true roots, stems and leaves. They important role in balancing the environment. They reproduce sexually and asexually. They are photoautotrophic, as photosynthesizer, algae need light and air for food production and growth, but do not generally require organic compounds from the environment. As a result of photosynthesis, algae produce oxygen and carbohydrates which are utilized by other organisms. Depending on the type of photosynthetic pigments they possess, they are classified as green, golden, brown or red. Algae are important as primary producers of organic matter at the base of the food chain. They also provide oxygen for other aquatic life. Algae may contribute to mass mortality of other organisms, in cases of algal blooms, but they also contribute to economic well- being in the form of food, medicine and other products. In tropical regions, coralline algae can be as important as corals in the formation of reefs. Seaweeds are larger algae that live in the marine (salt or brackish water) environment. Kelps are large brown seaweeds in the genera Pelagophycus, Laminaria, Macrocystis, etc. In the Pacific, individual kelp plants may reach 65 meters in length. CHARACTERISTICS OF ALGAE Algae are simple eukaryotic photoautotrophs. Most are found in the ocean.

Fungi, Algae, Protozoa, and u Most are multicellular, but yeasts are unicellular. u Most are aerobes or facultative anaerobes. Parasites u Cell walls are made up of chitin (polysaccharide). u Over 100,000 fungal species identified. Only about 100 are human or animal pathogens. u Most human fungal infections are nosocomial and/or occur in immunocompromised individuals (opportunistic infections). u Fungal diseases in plants cause over 1 billion dollars/year in losses.

  • Chapter 06 Multicellular Primary Producers: Seaweeds and Plants
    Chapter 06 - Multicellular Primary Producers: Seaweeds and Plants Chapter 06 Multicellular Primary Producers: Seaweeds and Plants Multiple Choice Questions 1. Algaes are included among the Protista. Some biologists, however, place them instead in the: A. Kingdom Animalia. B. Kingdom Fungi. C. Kingdom Plantae. D. Prokaryotes. E. Seagrasses. 2. Algaes and many bacteria are primary producers. In contrast to the types of the bacteria that are primary producers, however, all types of algaes are: A. Are photosynthetic. B. Are chemosynthetic. C. Are prokaryotic. D. Have true leaves and roots. E. Are unicellular. 3. Macroalgaes can be best differentiated from the phytoplankton because the marcoalgaes: A. Are eukaryotic. B. Are photosynthetic. C. Have true roots. D. Are mostly multicellular. E. Have true leaves. 6-1 © 2013 by McGraw-Hill Education. This is proprietary material solely for authorized instructor use.
