Do the “animal-like” protists (“protozoa”), or the “fungus-like” protists form a monophyletic group?
Do the “seaweeds” form a monophyletic group
protozoa do not form monophyletic,Protists are a paraphyletic group because animals, fungi, and plants are the crown groups evolved from different lineages of the protists. They aren't included in the same group as protists taxonomically.
- Includes Excavata and SAR clade (at least)
- Ciliates, Amoeba, plasmodium (Apicomplexans)
"fungus-like" protists form a monophyletic group,Slime molds
seaweeds" do not form a monophyletic group,Red/brown algae

Even though the name protozoa means first animal, the larger protist group contains some organisms that appear plant like because they A. Have roots that anchor them in one place and cannot move to feed. B. Contain chlorophyll. C. Produce their own food using sunlight to carry out photosynthesis. D. Live in the soil while using nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus to grow. A protozoan is a single cell. So, what makes a protozoan any different from any of the...
1) Protozoa are a polyphyletic group .What does that term mean?What common characteristics do Protozoa have that facilitates informally grouping them together?There are four pathogenic groups, based on their method of motility.Briefly describe these groups, give an example of a common parasite within each group, the disease they cause and their reservoirs / source.

Exercise: Many older classifications are not monophyletic, and do not reflect the evolutionary relationships among species. As an introduction to phylogenetic classification, think about the tetrapods (animals with four legs). These animals have traditionally been classified into four groups, all of the same rank: Class Amphibia (frogs, salamanders, newts, etc.) Class Reptilia (snakes, lizards, crocodiles, turtles, etc.) Class Aves (birds) Class Mammalia (mammals) Reptiles possess a common ancestor with certain extinct amphibians, the birds are derived from a group of...
