Time to Chitchat

To begin with, I hope we have no school tomorrow.  Woot.  This section will be divided into two parts - Notes and Response... so read on, fellow Bio 11ers!

Notes:
A beautiful Ameoba, Paramoecium, and Euglena diagram for you visually minded folks... SOURCE


I know... killer, right?!  But what else did my wandering mouse discover?  Why this wonderful slideshow about the Kingdom Protista... SOURCE.  This slideshow talked about Classification (free-living, Eukaryotic and the 3 types - animal, plant and fungus-like)  It discussed whether Algae was a actually a protist, and it included lots of pictures!
My next link was a page not found!  But I didn't and wouldn't let a little thing like that deter me!  So I went on to the next link on Pond water!  SOURCE  It was very intriguing and interactive... I liked how you could click on your choice of organisms!  I spent most of my 
time on this site reading up about "Desmids."  Desmids are green algae that are very 
beautiful... so much so, I had to include a picture... or three.  They are like me... very particular about where they live and come in many different shapes.  I really liked this site!











And then I found out, 4 sites in, that this wasn't homework, and I'd stayed up late working.  So, I spun around in my spinny chair, and hopped into my bed.  That's part of biology, too, right?

Response:
Diagram site - nice... quick, organized, easy to follow.
Slideshow - loved how it was point form, lots of nice picutres.
Notes and Assignment link - page not found?
Pond Water - very interactive and detailed!  Probably my favourite of the sites!
