Amoebozoa is a major taxonomic group containing about 2,400 described species of amoeboid protists, [7] often possessing blunt, fingerlike, lobose pseudopods and tubular mitochondrial cristae. [6][8] In traditional classification schemes, Amoebozoa is usually ranked as a phylum within either the kingdom Protista [9] or the kingdom Protozoa. [10 ...
IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry. In chemical nomenclature, the IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry is a method of naming organic chemical compounds as recommended [1][2] by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). It is published in the Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry (informally called the Blue Book). [3]
Chemical nomenclature. Chemical nomenclature is a set of rules to generate systematic names for chemical compounds. The nomenclature used most frequently worldwide is the one created and developed by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). IUPAC Nomenclature ensures that each compound (and its various isomers) have only ...
Dictyostelium discoideum. Dictyostelium discoideum is a species of soil-dwelling amoeba belonging to the phylum Amoebozoa, infraphylum Mycetozoa. Commonly referred to as slime mold, D. discoideum is a eukaryote that transitions from a collection of unicellular amoebae into a multicellular slug and then into a fruiting body within its lifetime.
Clockwise from top right: Amoeba proteus, Actinophrys sol, Acanthamoeba sp., Nuclearia thermophila., Euglypha acanthophora, neutrophil ingesting bacteria. An amoeba (/ ə ˈ m iː b ə /; less commonly spelled ameba or amœba; pl.: amoebas (less commonly, amebas) or amoebae (amebae) / ə ˈ m iː b i /), [1] often called an amoeboid, is a type of cell or unicellular organism with the ability ...
Amoeba (genus) Amoeba. (genus) Amoeba gorgonia Pen. Amoeba limicola Rhumb. Amoeba vespertilio Pen. Amoeba is a genus of single-celled amoeboids in the family Amoebidae. [2] The type species of the genus is Amoeba proteus, a common freshwater organism, widely studied in classrooms and laboratories. [3]
Chaos. (genus) Chaos is a genus of single-celled amoeboid organisms in the family Amoebidae. The largest and most-known species, the so-called "giant amoeba" (Chaos carolinensis), can reach lengths up to 5 mm, although most specimens fall between 1 and 3 mm. [3][4][5] Members of this genus closely resemble those of the genus Amoeba and share ...
The majority of organic compounds introduced on Earth by interstellar dust particles have helped to form complex molecules, thanks to their peculiar surface-catalytic activities. [ 107 ] [ 108 ] Studies of the 12 C/ 13 C isotopic ratios of organic compounds in the Murchison meteorite suggest that the RNA component uracil and related molecules ...
