The four groups of protozoa are differentiated in terms of motility, ascribe the motility form to
each group. Mastigophora - flagellates (9 + 2 microtubules)
Sarcodina - flowing cytoplasm (pseudopodia) - movement and phagocytosis
Ciliophora - cilia motility (9 + 2 microtubules)
Sporozoans - non-motile & parasitic (no reason to move) AIDS
How do protozoa differ from fungi? "first animal are very complex and unicellular, have no
cell wall (some have shell like pellicle), Vegitative cells trophozoite (actively growing rather than
forming spores), can develop cysts, are chemoheterotrophs (eat bacteria and other protozoans)
Name three human pathogens in the protozoa that move by flagella. Include disease caused.
Trichomonas, Giardia (by Cyst infections)
