For this assignment you will create a dichotomous key to help you Identify Bacteria (which are a pain in the bum to identify on the species level.) We will be focused on the general terms of bacteria and the only Phylum that will be addressed is the Cyanobacteria.
Use the following to create a dichotomous key to begin to identify the Phyla in the Kingdom Protista:
PROTISTA:
Plant-like (Algae)
Phylum Chlorophyta
Phylum Rhodophyta
Phylum Phaeophyta
Phylum Euglenida
Phylum Bacilliarophyta
Animal-like (Protozoans)
