Slime molds and Entamoebas belong to Amoebozoa Supergroup

Slime molds and Entamoebas belong to Amoebozoa Supergroup Even though they are under the same category they differ in their mode of nutrition and life cycle Use the diagram of the slime mold life cycle to identify what these two organisms share 8 Amoebas aggregate into a structure called a slug 7 New haploid amoebas are released 00 Meiosis 6 Zygote grows and undergoes meiosis and multiple rounds of mitosis Haploid and Asexual Reproduction fusion 2n Fertilization 10 Migration stops and the aggregate forms a fruiting body at the end of a stalk 9 Slug migrates at a rate of 2 mm per hour 5 Two amoebas fuse to form a zygote nucleus 4 Germination gives rise to amoeba which divide to form more individual cells plasmodium mature spores Spore germinates 1 Mature fruiting body generates spores Meiosis 2 Mature fruiting body releases spores Both amoeba and slime mold have amoeboid cells involved in reproduction O Both amoeba and slime mold produce spores Both amoeba and slime mold ingest pre formed organic molecules O Both amoeba and slime mold produce fruiting bodies
