a vast majority of land plants and early-diverging lineages of liverworts suggests that the origin of AM probably coincided with the origin of land plants. Classes include Archaeosporales‚ Diversisporales‚ Glomerales‚ Paraglomerales‚ part of the phylum Globermycota‚ and part of the kingdom fungi (species grow Arbuscular Mycorrhizae) * Fossil evidence and DNA sequence analysis by mycologists show arbuscular mycorrhizae first appeared approximately 400-460 million years ago.

Apicomplexa is a phylum made up almost entirely of parasites. Apicomplexans are distinguished by their unique method of entering host cells. Apicomplexans are a monophyletic group composed entirely of parasitic species. This species is the best known and probably the largest of parasitic protists. There are about 4‚000 known species‚ but this is certainly just an understatement of the actual number. Of the described species seven genera infect humans; these include the following: Plasmodium‚ Babesia

major mass extinctions and several minor events have led to large and sudden drops in biodiversity. The Phanerozoic eon (the last 540 million years) marked a rapid growth in biodiversity via the Cambrian explosion—a period during which nearly every phylum of multicellular organisms first appeared. The next 400 million years included repeated‚ massive biodiversity losses classified as mass extinction events. In the Carboniferous‚ rainforest collapse led to a great loss of plant and animal life.

The hawksbill sea turtle is a critically endangered reptile and only comes to land to lay theeggs. The hawksbill sea turtle as a unique physical structure and lives mostly in tropical coral reefs of the Atlantic and Pacific ocean. This animal mainly eats sponges and may sometimes go deeper to hunt for small squid. The hawksbill turtle got its name for its hawk like beak(S1). Did you know that the hawksbill sea turtle can change colors(S16)?!?! This proves that the hawksbill sea turtle has many

Staphylococcus Aureus (Staph Aureus) is a gram-positive coccal bacterium and is a member of the Firmicutes phylum. It is most commonly found in the respiratory tract or in skin infections and can sometimes occur from food poisoning. This bacterium is very common and can be found in almost all parts of the world. Every year around 500‚000 people in the USA go to the hospital to get treated (National Institutes of Health‚ 1999). Staph Aureus has genetically developed to resist many antibiotics (Larsen
