oraganisms in protista vs plant and animal kingdom organisms?
Q. How are the organisms found in the kingdom Protista different from those found in the plant and animal kingdom?
Asked by Bob S - Mon Oct 27 15:02:25 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Protists are not longer recognized as a valid group in modern taxonomy, so this question seems to come out of an outdated text book. But here we go: protists are unicellular organisms or multicellular without specialized tissues. Plants and animals are usually multicellular, with specialized tissues.

What is the main difference between Kingdom Monera and Kingdom Protista?
Q. Aren't they the same?
Asked by ??? - Sun Sep 16 18:16:42 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. No. Kingdom Monera are strictly single-celled organisms, mostly bacteria. Kingdom protista is kind of wierd, because there is no strict defenition of what it is, but rather it is everything not included in all the other kingdoms. An example would be algea - it does not fit into any other kingdom, so it would be considered protista.

A. You can do a search for some of the newer terms being proposed to redefine the kingdom. Protista, or Protoctista, or 3 parts (Chromista & Protozoa & Archaezoa) or even into 5 parts (Archaezoa, Euglenozoa, Alveolata, Stramenopila, Rhodophyta) Archaebacteria and eukaryotes grouped as neomura (new walls) or given separate categories.

A. They are eukaryotes because they all have a nucleus. Most have mitochondria although some have later lost theirs (Link). Mitochondria were derived from aerobic alpha-proteobacteria that once lived within their cells. Many have chloroplasts with which they carry on photosynthesis. Chloroplasts were derived from photosynthetic cyanobacteria living within their cells. Link to a discussion of the "endosymbiosis" theory of the origin of eukaryotes. Many are unicellular and all groups (with one exception) contain some unicellular members. The name Protista means "the very first", and some of the 80-odd groups of organisms that we classify as protists may well have had long, independent evolutionary histories stretching as far back as 2… [cont.]

what is meant by the statement that Protista Kingdom is paraphyletic?

Asked by jordan t - Tue May 20 14:09:40 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. A taxon is said to be paraphyletic if it does not contain all descendants of its last common ancestor. So, for example, "seedless plants" is paraphyletic because its last common ancestor would also be the ancestor of plants with seeds.

Asked by The Gunners - Tue Jan 1 19:22:20 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. People who are not affiliated with a particular group are bunched together simply because they don't belong anywhere else. So it is with protists. They are so varied and rarely have anything in common. For this reason, they are very difficult to classify. They too are grouped together simply because they don't fit in any of the other categories.

In your opinion, should the kingdom Protista be kept the same?
Q. What do you think- should it: a. remain the same b. be joined with kingdoms Animalia, Fungi, and Plantae and the criteria of those kingdoms redefined c. Be split into three more new kingdoms? (Protozoa have their own kingdom, Algae their own, and fungus-like protists their own.) please only answer if you actually know what I mean.
Asked by nerd for Jesus - Tue Apr 3 19:59:39 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. I think it should remain the same. Formerly, we thought that organisms in Kingdom Protista are too simple to be classified among the other three kingdoms: Plantae, Animalia, and Fungi. We thought that if knowledge advances us more onto this field, no organism will be left in Kingdom Protista. But we no longer think so. Studying Kingdom Protista leads us to a better understanding of the organisms classified under them in general. We used to underestimate them; thinking they are unclassified organisms. But this is no longer the case. As I studied Kingdom Protista in my General Botany classes, it came to me that they are themselves diverse in their own way; not as plants, as animals, or as fungi. Rather, not only in my point of… [cont.]

Asked by derekhuntera - Tue Feb 3 18:59:28 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It is not a monophyletic group. That means, that we don't know for sure that all members of it are more closely related to each other than they are to members of other groups (as is true of most other groups). That's because when Whittaker came up with the "5 Kingdom" model for taxonomy in the late 60's, they dumped any organism that they couldn't figure out which other group it should go into, to the Protista.

A. Members of Kingdom Protista, known as protists, are a diverse group of eukaryotic microorganisms that includes protozoans (flagellates, amoeboids, ciliates, sporozoa), algae (Chlorophytes (green algae), Rhodophytes (red algae), Heterokontophytes (brown algae)), and fungus-like protists (slime molds, water molds, etc.). .

Asked by In the AM - Thu Apr 9 13:13:19 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The evidence suggest that there was more than one common ancestor to the group at the level that it is separated from other groups. Ultrastructure, biochemical processes and molecular homology suggest that Protista comprises numerous subgroups that are as distantly related as plants, animals and fungi are related to each other.
