Description:For convenience, biologists divide living organisms into five Kingdoms: the Monerans (bacteria and blue-green algae), Protists, Fungi, Plants, and Animals. The Kingdom Protista includes a vast array of tiny eukaryotic cells which lead complex and extraordinary lives far from the eyes of most humans; a dedication to microscopy is vital to see them in all their splendor. This DVD is a unique resource introducing the viewer to a considerable range of living seaweeds, phytoplankton, amoebae, slime molds, ciliated protozoa and some dangerous pathogens. The spectacular video sequences, often in time-lapse, show life's drama being played out by these cells on their microscopic stage.Interwoven into the 33 chapters are vital topics such as: cell division; morphogenesis and differentiation; predatory tactics; endosymbiosis and its role in the evolution of algal groups; sex; differentiation; life cycles; wound response; and the origin of multicellular organisms and higher land plants.Teachers will find this DVD a convenient, thought-provoking and spectacular addition to their teaching aids, one guaranteed to stimulate interest and classroom discussion.[Running time: 2 hours, 10 minutes]We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
