Down
- 1. a type of asexual reproduction that is the result of a physical disturbance that breaks a colonial organism; observed in algae
- 2. microscopic organisms, primarily protozoans and algae, that float near the oceans surface and are a key resource in the oceans food chain
- 3. contains the majority of prokaryotic organisms
- 4. a microscopic, unicellular, prokaryotic organism in kingdom eubacteria or archaebacteria
- 6. a type of sexual reproduction that is common in many unicellular and colonial organisms for the purpose of exchanging portions of their genetic material
- 7. the slender filaments of a fungus that secrete enzymes for use in external digestion
- 8. produces spores, lacks chlorophyll, has cell walls, and obtains nourishment by absorption
