External Structures Glycocalyx
An outermost boundary that comes into direct contactwith environment
Usually composed of polysaccharides Appears as a network of fibers, a slime layer or a
capsule Functions in adherence, protection, and signal reception Beneath the glycocalyx
Fungi and most algae have a thick, rigid cell wall Protozoa, a few algae, and all animal cells lack a cell
wall and have only a membrane

Internal Structures
Endoplasmic reticulum two types:
Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) originatesfrom the outer membrane of the nuclear envelope
and extends in a continuous network throughcytoplasm; rough due to ribosomes; proteinssynthesized and shunted into the ER for packagingand transport; first step in secretory pathway
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) closedtubular network without ribosomes; functions innutrient processing, synthesis, and storage of lipids

1. Mastigophora primarily flagellar motility, someflagellar and amoeboid; sexual reproduction
2. Sarcodina primarily amoeba; asexual by fission;most are free-living
3. Ciliophora cilia; trophozoites and cysts; most arefree-living, harmless
4. Apicomplexa motility is absent except malegametes; sexual and asexual reproduction; complexlife cycle all parasitic

Parasitic Helminths
Multicellular animals, organs for reproduction,digestion, movement, protection
Parasitize host tissues
Have mouthparts for attachment to or
digestion of host tissues Most have well-developed sex organs that
produce eggs and sperm

out of host body

Major Groups of Parasitic Helminths
1. Flatworms flat, no definite body cavity;digestive tract a blind pouch; simple excretoryand nervous systems
Cestodes (tapeworms)
Trematodes or flukes, are flattened, nonsegmentedworms with sucking mouthparts
2. Roundworms (nematodes) round, acomplete digestive tract, a protective surface
cuticle, spines and hooks on mouth; excretoryand nervous systems poorly developed
