What are protozoans?
eukaryotes grouped together lossely
What are the traits that are common to protozoans?
unicellular eukaryotes
no cell wall
usually no photosynthesis, must gather food
How are protozoa different from bacteria? From animals? From plants? From fungi?
Bacteria = prokaryotes
Animals = multicellular
Plants = make their own food
Fungi = cell wall
Why do anti-protozoan drugs often have poor selective toxicity?
protozoa are eukaryotes like humans, so their cells are too similar to ours. This makes it hard to target them without also harming human cells.
