Monadophites. Vegetables, plants. Vegetal kingdom. Flora.

This term includes a large number of aquatic microscopic organisms that can be considered the limit of separation between the simplest animals (protozoa) and the most primitive algae.

Their common characteristics are very few: they are unicellular, provided with flagella and have plastids (chromatophores).

This last character separates them from animals.

Its classification is as follows:

• Flagellated.
• Chrysophyceae.
• Dinoflagellates.
• Silicoflagellates.
• Heterocontas.

The flagellates

Free organisms or forming colonies that have one or more flagella that allows them to move in the water.

They are autotrophs, meaning they make their own food through photosynthesis, but some are parasites.

They have a red stigma or eye spot sensitive to light.

Dinoflagellates

Microscopic algae with a cellulose shell formed by two caps or plates.
There are luminescent species.

Chrysophyceae

Free or in filamentous colonies, with plates or cup-shaped.

Silicoflagellates

With skeleton or siliceous shell.
Provided with flagella and yellowish-brown chromatophores.

They are all free organisms.

Heterocontas

Free organisms with or without membranes, sometimes forming filaments; In the first case, the membrane is divided into two pieces; in the second the organism is amoeboid; the membrane is peptic in nature.

The crmoplasts appear in variable numbers, yellowish-green in color and without pyrenoids.
