Vocabulary Which term means one-celled? Many-celled? multicellular unicellular Which term means that the organism produces its own food? Consumes food? autotroph heterotroph

Vocabulary Prokaryotic – describes an organism with cells that have a cell membrane but do NOT have a nuclear membrane Eukaryotic – describes an organism with cells that have a cell membrane and a nuclear membrane

Vocabulary Autotrophic – makes its own food Heterotrophic – gets nutrients from the food it consumes

List of the Three Domains and the Six Kingdoms 1. Domain Bacteria Kingdom Eubacteria 2. Domain Archaea Kingdom Archaebacteria 3. Domain Eukarya Kingdom Protista Kingdom Fungi Kingdom Plantae Kingdom Animalia

The grouping of organisms into KINGDOMS is based on 3 factors: 1. Cell Type 2. Cell Number 3. Feeding Type

Prokaryotes or Eukaryotes 1st Criterion for Kingdom Divisions: Cell Type Prokaryotes or Eukaryotes

Prokaryotes Eukaryotes 6 kingdoms Eubacteria Archaebacteria Protista Fungi Plantae Animalia Prokaryotes Eukaryotes

2nd Criterion for Kingdom Divisions: Cell Number Unicellular- single celled organism – protozoans, bacteria, some algae Multicellular- many celled organism – cells start to specialize/differentiate

Unicellular Multicellular

3rd Criteria for Kingdom Divisions: Feeding Type Autotroph or Producer Make their own energy source Heterotroph or Consumer Must eat other organisms to survive Includes decomposers – those that eat dead matter!

Kingdom Eubacteria Bacteria can live in many places on earth, inhabiting a wide variety of habitats, including other organisms Unicellular Prokaryotic Autotrophic or heterotrophic Thick cells walls

Kingdom Eubacteria Bacteria come in different shapes, such as round, spiral and rod-shaped.

Kingdom Eubacteria Bacteria can cause a wide variety of diseases, such as strep throat, food poisoning and the Black Death (bubonic plague of the Middle Ages)

Kingdom Archaebacteria Bacteria that live in extreme habitats, such as hot springs, geysers, volcanic hot pools, brine pools Unicellular Prokaryotic Autotrophic or heterotrophic

Characteristics-Shapes Cocci- round Bacilli- rod-shaped Spirilla- spiral

Kingdom Protista Extremely diverse group Eukaryotic Most unicellular, some multicellular Autotrophic and heterotrophic Cells transforms food into energy

Are organisms with nuclei in their cells that do not fit into the fungi, plant, or animal kingdoms but may have characteristics of each.

Protozoa Animal-like protist First animals They share some characteristics with animals. Can’t make their own food Take food from surroundings. Move through environment (slip and slide like jelly, use tail-like or fine hairs) Live wherever there is water Found in moist soil and inside other organisms

Kingdom Protista Euglena - autotrophic Volvox – a colonial protist A slime mold Amoeba - heterotrophic

Kingdom Fungi Eukaryotic Most are multicellular Heterotrophic (decomposers) Cell walls made of chitin

Absorbs nutrients from their environment to make food. Decompose (break down) the tissues of other organisms Can not move from place to place Can grow very quickly

Kingdom Fungi Stilton cheese Bread mold

Kingdom Plant Eukaryotic Multicellular Autotrophic Cell wall of cellulose; chloroplasts present

Kingdom Plantae

Kingdom Animalia Eukaryotic Multicellular Heterotrophic No cell walls, no chloroplasts

Kingdom Animalia Flatworm Sponge Jellyfish Octopus Coral snake Bear
