Single-celled eukaryotes, or protists, are a diverse group of unicellular organisms. They include protozoa, algae, slime molds, and yeasts. Protists can be photosynthetic, heterotrophic, or mixotrophic. They live in water and soil and play an important role in ecosystems by decomposing nutrients. Protists move using flagella, cilia, pseudopods, or they may be non-motile. They reproduce asexually through mitosis or sexually through conjugation. Some protists are pathogens that can cause diseases in humans and other organisms.

Background
Biologists have long organized living things into large groups called kingdoms.
There are six of them:
Archaebacteria
Eubacteria
Protista
Fungi
Plantae
Animalia
Some recent findings…
In 1996, scientists decided to split Monera into two groups of bacteria:
Archaebacteria and Eubacteria
Because these two groups of bacteria were different in many ways scientists created a new level of classification called a DOMAIN.
Now we have 3 domains
Bacteria
Archaea
Eukarya
KingdomArchaebacteria
Any of a large group of primitive bacteria having unusual cell walls, membrane lipids, ribosomes, and RNA sequences, and having the ability to produce methane and to live in anaerobic, extremely hot, salty, or acidic conditions
The Domain Archaea
“ancient” bacteria
Some of the first archaebacteria were discovered in Yellowstone National Park’s hot springs
Prokaryotes are structurally simple, but biochemically complex
Basic Facts
They live in extreme environments (like hot springs or salty lakes) and normal environments (like soil and ocean water).
All are unicellular (each individual is only one cell).
No peptidoglycan in their cell wall.
Some have a flagella that aids in their locomotion.
Most don’t need oxygen to survive
They can produce ATP (energy) from sunlight
They can survive enormous temperature extremes
They can survive under rocks and in ocean floor vents deep below the ocean’s surface
They can tolerate huge pressure differences
STRUCTURE
Size
Archaea are slightly less than 1 micron long.
A micron is 1/1,000 of a millimeter.
In order to see their cellular features, scientists use powerful electron microscopes.
Shape
Shapes can be spherical or ball shaped and are called coccus.
Others are rod shaped, long and thin, and labeled bacillus.
Variations of cells have been discovered in square and triangular shapes.
STRUCTURE
Locomotion
Some archaea have flagella, hair-like structures that assist in movement.
There can be one or many attached to the cell's outer membrane. Protein networks can also be found on the cell membrane, which allow cells to attach themselves in groups.
Cell Features
Within the cell membrane, the archaea cell contains cytoplasm and DNA, which are in single-looped forms called plasmids.
Most archaeal cells also have a semi-rigid cell wall that helps it to maintain its shape and chemical balance.
This protects the cytoplasm, which is the semi-liquid gel that fills the cell and enables the various parts to function.
STRUCTURE
Phospholipids
The molecules that make up cell membranes are called phospholipids, which act as building blocks for the cell.
In archaea, these molecules are made of glycerol-ether lipids.
Ether Bonding
The ether bonding makes it possible for archaea to survive in environments that are extremely acidic or al

Microbiology - Algae
Algae is an informal term for a large and diverse group of photosynthetic eukaryotic organisms. It is a polyphyletic grouping that includes species from multiple distinct clades.
Algae are sometimes considered plants and sometimes considered "protists" (a grab-bag category of generally distantly related organisms that are grouped on the basis of not being animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, or archaeans).

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. A eukaryote is an organism whose cells
contain complex structures enclosed
within membranes. The defining membrane-
bound structure that sets eukaryotic cells apart
from prokaryotic cells is the nucleus,
or nuclear envelope, within which the genetic
material is carried.
3. The single celled eukaryotes are classified under
the kingdom “PROTISTA”.
It is a being a paraphyletic group.
They are first eukaryotes, having a well organized
nucleus and complex membranous organelles.
Protozoa; some unicellular algae,
phycomycetes; myxomycetes and yeasts come
under this kingdom.
The term protista was first used by Ernst
Haeckel in 1866.
The simplest protist is “Amoeba”.
4. They are microscopical, unicellular eukaryotes.
They are unicellular or colonial forms without
distinct division of labor.
They generally live in water.
They maybe heterotrophic or autotrophic.
They may use pseudopodia, flagella or cilia for
locomotion.
They showed mitosis and meiosis.
5.
6. There are four phyla of Animal-like Protists
classified by how they move-
1.Zooflagellates – flagella.
2.Sarcodines - extensions of cytoplasm
(pseudopodia).
3.Ciliates – cilia.
4.Sporozoans - do not move.
7. They move using one or two flagella
absorb food across membrane, eg-Leishmania
Fig. Leishmania
8. They moves using pseudopodia (false
feet),which are like extensions of the cytoplasm
--ameboid movement.
They ingest food by surrounding and engulfing
food (endocytosis),creating a food vacuole.
They reproduce by binary fission.
contractile vacuole - removes excess water
can cause amebic dysentery in humans -
diarrhea and stomach upset from drinking
contaminated water
10. Paramecium-
They move using cilia;has
two nuclei: macronucleus,
micronucleus;food is
gathered through food
vacuole;anal pore is used
for removing
waste;contractile
vacuole removes excess
water;reproduces asexually
(binary fission) or sexually
(conjugation);paramecia
are always the same
shape,like a shoe.
Fig. Paramecium
11. They do not move on
their own.
They are parasitic.
Plasmodium
falciparum and
Plasmodium vivax
are sporozoans,
infects the liver and
blood and causes
malaria.
Fig. Plasmodium vivax
12. They contain chlorophyll and carry out
photosynthesis.
There are four phyla:
euglenophytes, chrysophytes, diatoms, dinofla
gellates.
Their accessory pigments help absorb
light, and give them a variety of colors.
13. Euglena-
They live in water,have 2
flagella for
movement,use
chlorplasts for
photosynthesis, but turn
into heterotrophs if kept
in the dark,
has an eyespot used for
sensing light and dark
pellicle - like a cell
wall, helps maintain
their shapes.
Fig. Euglena
14. Chrysophytes-
Yellow-green algae,
"golden plants“.
Diatoms-
produce thin cell
walls of silicon.
Dinoflagellates-
Often have two
flagella
luminescent.
Fig. Chrysophytes
Fig.Diatoms
Fig. Dinoflagellates
15. Yeasts are eukaryotic, mostly unicellular micro-
organisms.Most
reproduce asexually by budding, although a
few do so by mitosis. They are phylogenetically
diverse and are placed under phyla
Ascomycota and Basidiomycota. Yeasts
are chemorganotrophs. They usually reproduce
by budding or by meiosis and spore formation
(under stress conditions).
17. Nutrition in some different types of protists is
variable. In flagellates, for example, filter
feeding may sometimes occur where the
flagella find the prey. Other protists can engulf
bacteria and digest them internally, by
extending their cell membrane around the food
material to form a food vacuole. This is then
taken into the cell via endocytosis usually
phagocytosis; sometimes pinocytosis.

19. Some protists
reproduce sexually (conjugation), while others
reproduce asexually (binary fission).
Some species, for example Plasmodium
falciparum, have extremely complex life
cycles that involve multiple forms of the
organism, some of which reproduce sexually
and others asexually.
20. Protists form a broad base across the bottom of the
food chain, and they supply approximately one-half of
the world’s oxygen.
Protists, along with bacteria and fungi, are responsible
for decomposing and recycling nutrients.
Euglena are used to help treat sewage because of their
unique ability to switch from an autotrophic to a
heterotrophic nutritional mode, helping to maintain
oxygen levels in the balance.
Trichonympha which lives in the digestive system of
termites and produces cellulase, an enzyme that enables
termites to digest wood.
Products derived from protists are used in treatment of
ulcers, high blood pressure and arthritis.
21. Some protists are significant pathogens of
both animals and plants; for
example Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax,
which causes malaria in humans,
and Phytophthora infestans, which causes potato
blight. Balantidium Coli and Entamoeba
Histolytica causes severe dysentry in animals,
eg-pigs and humans. Mastigophorites that
belong to the genus trypanosoma,causes
African Sleeping Sickness, a disease which
often leads to death.
