6 Kingdom System A brief overview

The Six Kingdoms are… Starting with the least complex to the most complicated and fancy.. 1 – Archaebacteria 2 –Bacteria 3 – Protists 4 – Fungi 5 – Plants 6 - Animalia

Kingdom Archaebacteria General Characteristics 1. Single-celled /Unicellular/One-celled 2. Prokaryotic (cells have no formal nucleus) 3. Asexual reproduction by fission 4. Obtain food through chemosynthesis 5. Shapes:-cocci (round), bacilli (rod), spirilla (spiral) 6. Live in extreme conditions – very salty, hot, acidic

Kingdom Eubacteria Single-celled prokaryotic 3. Asexual reproduction by fission 4. Cannot make their own food 5. Come in 3 shapes – cocci, bacilli, spirilla 6. Most common bacteria 7. Found everywhere – even in your mouth 

Kingdom Protista Eukaryotic Cells (have a formal nucleus) Single or multi-cellular Asexual & Sexual Reproduction Some are producers, others are consumers 5. Some move using: flagella, (whip-like tail), cilia (hair like projections) or pseudopods (false feet) Watch pseudopods in ACTION http://wolfbat359.com/streaming1.html

Kingdom Fungi Eukaryotic cells & Multi-cellular Unable to move Sexual & Asexual reproduction Feed off dead organisms for nutrients (saprophytes or decomposers)

Kingdom Plantae Eukaryotic Cells w/ cell walls, chloroplasts, & chlorophyll Multi-cellular Sexual & Asexual reproduction Capable of photosynthesis – makes its own food using sunlight (autotroph/producer) Immobile (no movement)

Plantae Phyla/Divisons 1. Bryophyta: moss, liverwort Small, no leaves or roots (sporophyte/gametophyte) 2. Pterophyta: ferns, horse tails - seedless, vascular plant 3. Gymnosperm: pine tree, junipers - needle-like leaves, evergreen, cones - Seeds in cones 4. Angiosperms: rose, apple tree, tulip - flowering, vascular, leaves, stems & roots - seeds in flower or fruit

Kingdom Animalia General Characteristics: Many-celled & Eukaryotic Heterotrophs/Consumers – cannot make their own food, rely on other organisms for nutrients All are capable of sexual reproduction (some reproduce Asexually) Capable of movement in many forms
