The Serbian Cyrillic alphabet ( Serbian : Српска ћирилица азбука , Srpska ćirilica azbuka , pronounced [sr̩̂pskaː tɕirǐlitsa] ) is a variation of the Cyrillic script used to write the Serbian language that originated in medieval Serbia . Reformed in 19th century by the Serbian philologist and linguist Vuk Karadžić . It is one of the two alphabets used to write modern standard Serbian , the other being Gaj's Latin alphabet .
73-596: Golija ( Serbian Cyrillic : Голија , pronounced [ɡǒlija] ) is a mountain in southwestern Serbia, located between towns of Ivanjica and Novi Pazar . It is part of the Dinaric mountain range . The mountain is heavily forested with significant biodiversity . It contains the Golija-Studenica Biosphere Reserve , the first UNESCO - MAB registered biosphere reserve in Serbia. It

Chlorarachniophytes , which belong to the phylum Cercozoa , contain a small nucleomorph , which is a relict of the algae's nucleus . Euglenids , which belong to the phylum Euglenozoa , live primarily in fresh water and have chloroplasts with only three membranes. The endosymbiotic green algae may have been acquired through myzocytosis rather than phagocytosis . (Another group with green algae endosymbionts

They have one or more pyrenoids to preserve protein and starch. The latter chlorophyll type is not known from any prokaryotes or primary chloroplasts, but genetic similarities with red algae suggest a relationship there. In the first three of these groups ( Chromista ),

The following table provides the upper and lower case forms of the Serbian Cyrillic alphabet, along with the equivalent forms in the Serbian Latin alphabet and the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) value for each letter. The letters do not have names, and consonants are normally pronounced as such when spelling
365-539: A challenge in Unicode modeling, as the glyphs differ only in italic versions, and historically non-italic letters have been used in the same code positions. Serbian professional typography uses fonts specially crafted for the language to overcome the problem, but texts printed from common computers contain East Slavic rather than Serbian italic glyphs. Cyrillic fonts from Adobe, Microsoft (Windows Vista and later) and

If the underlying font and Web technology provides support, the proper glyphs can be obtained by marking the text with appropriate language codes. Thus, in non-italic mode: whereas: Since Unicode unifies different glyphs in same characters, font support must be present to display the correct variant. The standard Serbian keyboard layout for personal computers
511-539: A form and capabilities not possessed by the symbiont species alone (they can be experimentally isolated). The photobiont possibly triggers otherwise latent genes in the mycobiont. Trentepohlia is an example of a common green alga genus worldwide that can grow on its own or be lichenised. Lichen thus share some of the habitat and often similar appearance with specialized species of algae ( aerophytes ) growing on exposed surfaces such as tree trunks and rocks and sometimes discoloring them. Coral reefs are accumulated from

The innovation that defines these nonalgal plants is the presence of female reproductive organs with protective cell layers that protect the zygote and developing embryo. Hence, the land plants are referred to as the Embryophytes . The term algal turf is commonly used but poorly defined. Algal turfs are thick, carpet-like beds of seaweed that retain sediment and compete with foundation species like corals and kelps , and they are usually less than 15 cm tall. Such

The etymology is uncertain, but a strong candidate has long been some word related to the Biblical פוך ( pūk ), 'paint' (if not that word itself), a cosmetic eye-shadow used by the ancient Egyptians and other inhabitants of the eastern Mediterranean. It could be any color: black, red, green, or blue. The study of algae

According to local myths, when he was returning to Hungary after the Second Battle of Kosovo in 1448. He placed a stone on top of the mountain to mark his presence, hence the name which is Serbian for "Janko's stone". The highest peak is followed by Radulovac (1,785 metres (5,856 ft)), Bojevo Brdo (1,748 metres (5,735 ft)) and Crni Vrh (1,725 metres (5,659 ft)).

One definition of algae is that they "have chlorophyll as their primary photosynthetic pigment and lack a sterile covering of cells around their reproductive cells ". On the other hand, the colorless Prototheca under Chlorophyta are all devoid of any chlorophyll. Although cyanobacteria are often referred to as "blue-green algae", most authorities exclude all prokaryotes , including cyanobacteria, from

Although some speculate that it is related to Latin algēre , 'be cold', no reason is known to associate seaweed with temperature. A more likely source is alliga , 'binding, entwining'. The Ancient Greek word for 'seaweed' was φῦκος ( phŷkos ), which could mean either the seaweed (probably red algae) or

Serbian Cyrillic does not use several letters encountered in other Slavic Cyrillic alphabets. It does not use hard sign ( ъ ) and soft sign ( ь ), particularly due to a lack of distinction between iotated consonants and non-iotated consonants, but the aforementioned soft-sign ligatures instead. It does not have Russian/Belarusian Э , Ukrainian/Belarusian І ,

Golija has three distinguishable climate areas, valley climate below 700 m altitude with moderate continental climate, transitional (700–1300 m) with short sharp winters and heavy snowfall, and the mountainous area (over 1300 m) with severe winters and short summer. Nature park Golija-Studenica covers an area of 751.83 km (290.28 sq mi). Golija's plants account for 25 percent of Serbia's flora . There are recorded 1091 plant species in
1971-751: The Calymmian period , early in Boring Billion , but it is difficult to track the key events because of so much time gap. Primary symbiogenesis gave rise to three divisions of archaeplastids , namely the Viridiplantae ( green algae and later plants ), Rhodophyta ( red algae ) and Glaucophyta ("grey algae"), whose plastids further spread into other protist lineages through eukaryote-eukaryote predation , engulfments and subsequent endosymbioses (secondary and tertiary symbiogenesis). This process of serial cell "capture" and "enslavement" explains
2044-614: The Infusoria (microscopic organisms). Unlike macroalgae , which were clearly viewed as plants, microalgae were frequently considered animals because they are often motile. Even the nonmotile (coccoid) microalgae were sometimes merely seen as stages of the lifecycle of plants, macroalgae, or animals. Although used as a taxonomic category in some pre-Darwinian classifications, e.g., Linnaeus (1753), de Jussieu (1789), Lamouroux (1813), Harvey (1836), Horaninow (1843), Agassiz (1859), Wilson & Cassin (1864), in further classifications,

The Serbian Cyrillic alphabet was used as a basis for the Macedonian alphabet with the work of Krste Misirkov and Venko Markovski . The Serbian Cyrillic script was one of
2482-986: The Vindhya basin have been dated to 1.6 to 1.7 billion years ago. Because of the wide range of algae types, they have increasingly different industrial and traditional applications in human society. Traditional seaweed farming practices have existed for thousands of years and have strong traditions in East Asia food cultures. More modern algaculture applications extend the food traditions for other applications, including cattle feed, using algae for bioremediation or pollution control, transforming sunlight into algae fuels or other chemicals used in industrial processes, and in medical and scientific applications. A 2020 review found that these applications of algae could play an important role in carbon sequestration to mitigate climate change while providing lucrative value-added products for global economies. The singular alga
2555-601: The apicomplexans are also parasites derived from ancestors that possessed plastids, but are not included in any group traditionally seen as algae. Algae are polyphyletic thus their origin cannot be traced back to single hypothetical common ancestor . It is thought that they came into existence when photosynthetic coccoid cyanobacteria got phagocytized by a unicellular heterotrophic eukaryote (a protist ), giving rise to double-membranous primary plastids . Such symbiogenic events (primary symbiogenesis) are believed to have occurred more than 1.5 billion years ago during
2628-435: The apicomplexans , are also derived from cells whose ancestors possessed chlorophyllic plastids, but are not traditionally considered as algae. Algae have photosynthetic machinery ultimately derived from cyanobacteria that produce oxygen as a byproduct of splitting water molecules , unlike other organisms that conduct anoxygenic photosynthesis such as purple and green sulfur bacteria . Fossilized filamentous algae from

Vuk Stefanović Karadžić fled Serbia during the Serbian Revolution in 1813, to Vienna. There he met Jernej Kopitar , a linguist with interest in slavistics. Kopitar and Sava Mrkalj helped Vuk to reform Serbian and its orthography. He finalized
2920-720: The "algae" are seen as an artificial, polyphyletic group. Throughout the 20th century, most classifications treated the following groups as divisions or classes of algae: cyanophytes , rhodophytes , chrysophytes , xanthophytes , bacillariophytes , phaeophytes , pyrrhophytes ( cryptophytes and dinophytes ), euglenophytes , and chlorophytes . Later, many new groups were discovered (e.g., Bolidophyceae ), and others were splintered from older groups: charophytes and glaucophytes (from chlorophytes), many heterokontophytes (e.g., synurophytes from chrysophytes, or eustigmatophytes from xanthophytes), haptophytes (from chrysophytes), and chlorarachniophytes (from xanthophytes).

However, as a legacy of the older plant life scheme, some groups that were also treated as protozoans in the past still have duplicated classifications (see ambiregnal protists ). Some parasitic algae (e.g., the green algae Prototheca and Helicosporidium , parasites of metazoans, or Cephaleuros , parasites of plants) were originally classified as fungi , sporozoans , or protistans of incertae sedis , while others (e.g.,

The loss of Symbiodinium from the host is known as coral bleaching , a condition which leads to the deterioration of a reef. Endosymbiontic green algae live close to the surface of some sponges, for example, breadcrumb sponges ( Halichondria panicea ). The alga

Many of these groups contain some members that are no longer photosynthetic. Some retain plastids, but not chloroplasts, while others have lost plastids entirely. Phylogeny based on plastid not nucleocytoplasmic genealogy: Cyanobacteria Glaucophytes Rhodophytes Stramenopiles Cryptophytes Haptophytes Euglenophytes Chlorarachniophytes Chlorophytes Charophytes Land plants (Embryophyta) These groups have green chloroplasts containing chlorophylls
3577-436: The definition of algae. The algae contain chloroplasts that are similar in structure to cyanobacteria. Chloroplasts contain circular DNA like that in cyanobacteria and are interpreted as representing reduced endosymbiotic cyanobacteria . However, the exact origin of the chloroplasts is different among separate lineages of algae, reflecting their acquisition during different endosymbiotic events. The table below describes
