The Five Kingdoms or are there? Monera Protista Fungi Plantae Animalia The old model

The OLD Model

The NEW Model

Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes Eukaryotic Organisms Contain a true nucleus with DNA Contain membrane bound organelles Multicellular or Unicellular Examples: Fungi, Animals, Protists, Plants Prokaryotic Organisms Contain no nucleus Free-floating DNA Contain no membrane bound organelles Unicellular Examples: Monerans (bacteria)‏

The Bacteria Kingdom (Monerans)‏ Divided into Archeabacteria and Eubacteria Archeabacteria is EXTREME Bacteria. Eubacteria is common bacteria. Most Bacteria do not have a nucleus Single-celled Don’t make their own food. Feed on other organisms or a host organism. They don’t move on their own Prokaryotic

The Protist Kingdom (Protozoan)‏ A combined animal-like and plant-like organism Some contain Chloroplasts Some make own food. Little “creatures” floating in a drop of pond water. Single celled. Most have a nucleus. Eukaryotic

The Fungi Kingdom Fungi Can’t move. Can be anywhere. Multicellular Cells have a nucleus Eat and recycle dead organisms Examples are mold or mildew. Eukaryotic

The Plant Kingdom Plants are food for animals. They contain chloroplasts Make their own food They cannot move unless they’re growing Nucleus and DNA Multicellular Eukaryotic

The Animal Kingdom Exhibit Locomotion (able to move from place to place). Multicellular (many cells) Cells contain a nucleus Don’t make their Own food. Eukaryotic
