Description

This intriguing book shows how this group's unusal members are generally classified according to an absence of a feature, such as the lack of complicated cell structure. Learn about such exotic organisms as algae, amoebae, and slime molds--all of them protists. Case histories examine the importance of plankton to the marine food chains and the role of protists in various diseases.
