Which of the following is not a kingdom of life? Primates Plantae Protista Archaebacteria

The 6 Kingdoms of Life… what are they? Animalia Plantae Protista Fungi Eubacteria Archaebacteria

More discovered every day! It is estimated that there are… 10 million – 1 billion species of bacteria on Earth 10-30 million species of animals 400,000 species of plant 75,000 species of fungi 65,000 – 200,000 species of protist

Characteristics of the 6 Kingdoms of Life

Remember! Prokaryotic Cells Eukaryotic Cells Small & simple No nucleus or membrane-bound organelles Larger & more complex Contain a nucleus & membrane-bound organelles

Micrograph of plant tissue Remember! Unicellular Multicellular Paramecium Micrograph of plant tissue

The Prokaryotes Archaebacteria Eubacteria Cell walls NOT made of peptidoglycan Unicellular Some autotroph, some heterotroph Movement with flagella Asexual reproduction Binary Fission Cell walls made of peptidoglycan Unicellular Mostly heterotroph, some autotrophs Movement with flagella Asexual reproduction Binary Fission

Archaebacteria Found in harsh environments Examples: Volcanic vents, acidic hot springs, salty water, etc. Examples: Methanogens: produce methane Thermoacidophiles: like hot and acidic environments Extreme Halophiles: love salt

Eubacteria “True Bacteria” Come in 3 basic shapes: cocci (spheres) bacilli (rod shaped) spirilla (spiral shape) Aerobic or anaerobic (does or doesn’t need oxygen) Can be identified by gram staining Bacteria can be gram negative or gram positive.

Staphylococcus aureus Eubacteria Examples Staphylococcus aureus Escherichia coli Bacillus anthracis

Protista - Eukaryotic Cell walls made of cellulose Most are unicellular, some multicellular Some autotrophs, some heterotrophs Reproduce asexually or sexually Can be found in pond or stagnant water

Protista Move with cilia, flagella, & pseudopodia Amoeba moving with a pseudopod Paramecium moving with cilia Euglena moving with flagella

Fungi – Eukaryotic Cell walls are made of chitin Most multicellular, some unicellular Heterotrophic, mostly saprobes Live on other dead organisms Non-motile (no movement) Reproduce sexually or asexually Do not contain chlorophyll!

Important decomposers & recyclers of nutrients in the environment! Fungi Mushrooms Ringworm Yeast Mold Important decomposers & recyclers of nutrients in the environment!

Plantae - Eukaryotic Cell wall made of cellulose Multicellular Autotrophs Non-motile (no movement) Reproduce sexually or asexually Contain chlorophyll

Animalia - Eukaryotic No cell walls Multicellular Heterotrophs Reproduce sexually Show levels of organization, including cell, tissue, organ, & body systems. Cells are specialized for particular functions.
