Bellwork: February 11 Read the question. Write two key pieces of information from the question. Then, summarize each of the statements in the box. A. I and IV B. III only C. II and IV D. I, II and IV 17. Scientists conduct an experiment on natural selection and place animals on a large island. They have modified the animals so that there is no variety (variation) between and among the species on this island. This could be a problem for many reasons, especially if the island had a varied ecosystem. What reason(s) listed below could cause problems for identical animals in a varied ecosystem?

Science Fact of the Day: Some species of earthworm can have as many as 10 hearts.

Objective : TLW compare the characteristics of the six kingdoms.

1. Four questions can be used to divide all living things into six kingdoms… a.Is it prokaryotic or eukaryotic? b.Is it unicellular or multicellular? c.Is it autotrophic or heterotrophic? d.Do the cells have cell walls, and if so, what are they made of?

2. Prokaryotes: a.Smaller and simpler than eukaryotes b.Have no nucleus c.Have no membrane-bound organelles d.Include the Eubacteria and Archaebacteria kingdoms

3. Eukaryotes: a.Larger and more complex than prokaryotes b.Have a nucleus c.Have membrane- bound organelles d.Include the Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia kingdoms

4. Unicellular: a.Organisms made of only one cell b.Uni = one c.Include the Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, Protista, and Fungi kingdoms

5. Multicellular: a.Organisms made of two or more cells b.Multi = many c.Include the Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia kingdoms

6. Autotrophs: a. Organisms that can produce their own food by using sunlight or chemical energy

b. Autotrophs are also called producers. c. Include the Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protista, and Plantae kingdoms.

7. Heterotrophs: a. Organisms that rely on other organisms for their energy and food supply.

b. Heterotrophs are also called consumers. c. Include the Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protista, Fungi, and Animalia kingdoms.

8. Most organisms have a cell wall that provides protection and support to their cells. a.Archaebacteria have cell walls without peptidoglycan. b.Eubacteria have cell walls made of peptidoglycan. c.Some protists have cell walls while others do not. d.Fungi have cell walls made of chitin. e.Plants have cell walls made of cellulose. f.Animals do not have cell walls.

On the next full sheet in your notebook, glue in the chart I have given you. You will fill in the boxes using the information from your “Introduction to Kingdoms” notes.

Fill in the previous chart using the information from your notes. “Enhance” your chart using the following colors: Prokaryote vs Eukaryote: Color eukaryotic boxes blue Color prokaryotic boxes yellow. Unicellular vs Multicellular: Color unicellular boxes purple Color multicellular boxes orange Color the both boxes half purple and half orange. Autotroph or Heterotroph: Color heterotrophic boxes red Color autotrophic boxes green Color the both boxes half red and half green. Cell Wall: Color the yes boxes grey Color the no boxes light blue Color the both boxes half grey and half light blue.

Bellwork: February 12 For each of the following, write the kingdoms that have that characteristic. Copy the characteristic and write the kingdoms. 1.Unicellular: ________________________ 2.Prokaryotes: _______________________ 3.Cell wall made of chitin: ______________ 4.Autotrophs: ________________________ 5.Eukaryotes: ________________________

Kingdom Cards Fill out each Kingdom with its correct characteristics Skip the “Reproduction” line. We will come back to this in 2 weeks. To find examples, go to page 459 in the textbook and use the chart provided there. Under “Other Characteristics,” write if it has a cell wall and what it is made out of.

Word Wall Activity Write the assigned vocabulary word at the top of your paper Draw a picture below to describe the definition of the word (make it BIG) We will decide which picture best represents the word and put it on the Word Wall. Autotroph (Picture here that describes what an autotroph is)
