Kingdoms

The Kingdoms of Life Biologists have organized living things into large groups called . Biologists group organisms into six Kingdoms based on RNA and DNA sequencing and similarities: Cell Type Organisms are either prokaryotes or eukaryotes. Cell Walls Body Type Organisms are either unicellular or multicellular. Nutrition Organisms are either autotrophs or heterotrophs.

Words and Terms to Know __________– no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles. These are the most primitive cells ___________– have nucleus and membrane-bound organelles ___________ – Make their own food ___________ – Obtain their food by ingestion ___________-1 cell, Multicellular-many cells Sexual reproduction-2 parents _______-1 parent

Kingdom ________ ______________, unicellular, cell wall Some autotrophic/heterotrophic _____________ reproduction (binary fission) Ex.- bacteria Live almost everywhere, some are beneficial, some cause disease.

Kingdom _____________ ______________, cell wall, unicellular ______________reproduction, binary fission Some autotroph/heterotroph

Kinds of Archaebacteria Ex.-Methanogens Produce methane gas. Methanogens live deep in the mud of swamps and are poisoned by even traces of oxygen. Ex.-______________ live in very hot places, very salty lakes, live in very acidic places or under enormous pressure.

Kingdom ___________ complex multicellular ______________. specialized ______________ cells, cell walls, and tissues. cannot ___________ from one place to another. Reproduce ____________ and asexually

Kingdom ____________ Complex, multicellular ___________. eukaryotic, ______________, and are organized as tissues. _______________ to move rapidly in complex ways Most animals reproduce __________. Almost all animals (99%) are invertebrates; they lack a backbone. Of more than 1 million living species, only about 42,500 have a backbone; they are referred to as vertebrates. The animal kingdom includes about 35 phyla, most of which live in the sea.
