Document Summary
Protist that are considered more animal like. They"re more animal like by their motility (cilia on surface, flagella or amebo movement. Diverse and more morphology and life cycle. Things they have in common is that there"s eukaryotic unicellular and they lack a cell wall. Most protoza can reproduce asually, and theyre many ways this can happen. This can happen in binary fission, much like in bacteria, (paramecium) one parent cell forms two identical daughter cells. Asecual reproductiom can also happen through budding, a smaller offspring that are genetically identical to the parent cell , form at the surface or below the surface of the cell and is than released. Some can reproduce sexually but these life cycles are quite different and type of sexual reproduction that occurs is unusual than expected. Ciliated life cycle can undergo protozoan conjugation which is different from what occurs in bacteria. In bacteria his refers in a one way transfer of dna.
