Protozoa

  • Protozoa Introduction
    • Protozoa are single-celled eukaryotes
    • Cyst vs. trophozoite forms
      • in stressed environments, protozoa secrete a protective coat and shrink to a cyst form
        • cysts are ingested by humans, leading to disease
      • once inside a host, the protozoa convert back to their motile feeding form, the trophozoite form
