Protozoan infections

中文百科

原生动物 Protozoa

(重定向自Protozoan infections)

原生动物是原生生物当中较接近动物的一类,简称原虫。由单细胞所组成,异养生活,能够运动。但是有些物种介于植物和动物之间,如眼虫,因为它们能进行光合作用;它们又能运动,并像真正的动物那样进食。动物中排除原生动物,剩下的多细胞动物被称为后生动物。后生动物中有了组织分化的被称为真后生动物。

原虫很微小,一般只能通过显微镜才能看到。但在马里亚纳海沟发现的一类有孔虫门原虫Xenophyophores,直径可以达到20厘米,为最大的原生动物。经记录的原生动物约有50000种,其中大约有20000种为化石种。

按照支序分类学说的观点,原生动物是真核生物除去多细胞动物、植物、真菌之外的部分,为并系群,且区分动植物的标准——运动和光合作用均与生物演化分类无关。光合作用并非真核生物的原始属性,而是分别通过一次或多次内共生来实现的,各个营光合作用的种类彼此间并无亲缘关系。因此原生动物只是一个集合概念,而不应作为生物分类的单元。原生动物现在被更准确地划分在一个单独的界:原生生物界

In some systems of biological classification, the Protozoa are a diverse group of unicellular eukaryotic organisms. Historically, protozoa were defined as single-celled organisms with animal-like behaviors, such as motility and predation. The group was regarded as the zoological counterpart to the "protophyta", which were considered to be plant-like, as they are capable of photosynthesis. The terms protozoa and protozoans are also used informally to designate single-celled, non-photosynthetic protists, such as ciliates, amoebae and flagellates.
