Domains and Kingdoms Archaea, Bacteria, Eukarya Protist, Fungi,Plant,Animal Mr. Wagenborg 7th Grade
Domain Archaea Made up entirely of Archaea Prokaryote(Single Cell,No Nucleus) Archaea means ancient- has survived for a long time Found in extreme environments-the hottest of the hot (hot springs), the coldest of the cold (deep oceans)
Archaea
Examples Found in Yellowstone National Park (Old Faithful Hot Spring) Found in The Dead Sea (High Salt Levels) Found in swamps and soils (High Amounts of Methane Gas)
Domain Bacteria Made up entirely of Bacteria Prokaryote(single cell,no nucleus) Found in humans, soil and water Good kind-turns milk into yogurt, helps with digestion in the stomach Bad kind-causes pneumonia, sickness and death Ex. E. coli- bad bacteria in foods
Bacteria
Domain Eukara All organisms that contain cells with a nucleus and organelles Called Eukaryotes Consists of the Kingdoms: Protists, Funji, Plant and Animal
Kingdom:Protists Organisms that cannot fit into any other kingdom Evolved from bacteria and evolved into plants,fungi and animals Ex- algae (think about fish tanks and pools) Slime molds Kelp
Protists Algae Kelp Water Mold
Kingdom:Fungi Do not perform photosynthesis and do not eat food Spores Absorb nutrients from their surroundings and juices break down the substances for digestion Wild fungi are poisonous Ex- mushrooms, molds (old bread or cheese) and foot fungus
Fungi
Kingdom:Plants Have cell walls Make food through photosynthesis Other kingdoms depend on plants –Provide food/nutrients for the other kingdoms –Provide habitats for other kingdoms Ex- trees, roses, sunflowers, ferns, etc.
Plants
Kingdom:Animals Specialized sense organs-able to respond to their environment Able to move Depend on plants for food Depend on bacteria and fungi to recycle nutrients in dead organisms Ex. dog, eagle, turtle, sponge(can’t move but can’t make its own food)
Animals
Sponges in the ocean
