Six Kingdoms Six KINGDOMS Archaebacteria Eubacteria Protista Fungi Planate Animalia PROKARYOTE EUKARYOTE

Kingdom - ARCHAEBACTERIA Prokaryote (No Nucleus) -No internal membrane bound organelles Finding Archaebacteria: The hot springs of Yellowstone National Park, USA, were among the first places Archaebacteria were discovered. Unicellular- single cell Harsh Environment - found in almost every environment ( deep sea vent / arctic / hot springs, salt ponds, etc) Cell Wall Chemosynthetic – NO photosythesis Ancient Ones Ex. Archae or bacteria

Kingdom - Eubacteria Prokaryote Prokaryote – NO nucleus (internal membrane bound structures) Unicellular – single cell Cell Wall Producers & Consumers – Chemosynthetic (autotroph – NO photosythesis ) – Decomposers True bacteria Found in common places – ( air / intestines /etc...) Ex. E. Coli

Bacteria Reproduction Bacteria reproduce asexually – (only one parent) reproduce through division of a single cell – binary fission Can be as fast as twenty minutes, which explains why bacteria can reach such high population densities.

General bacterial Cell

Kingdom Protista EUKAROTIC has NUCLEUS (membrane bound organelles) Unicellular and Multicellular Most are unicellular Complex cells Some Protists have cell walls Most are Motile ( cilia / flagellum/ pseudopodia) Mobility (method of movement) is what usually identify this kingdom Have both Autotrophs and Heterotrophs Examples of Protists unicellular Protists Amoebae-(pseudopodia), euglena-(flagella), paramecium- (cilia), multicellular Protists green algae, brown algae,

Examples - Protists Euglena Paramecium Amoeba Algae Flagellum (movement) Cilia movement

Ex. Protists

Kingdom - Fungi EUKAROYTE - Nucleus present Complex Cells – Have Hyphae Cell Wall - made of Chitin Heterotroph – NO chloroplast/cholorphyll Decomposers - feed off other things Reproduce - use spores ( inside hyphae gills) – No sex cells / no eggs or sperm Unicellular or Multicellular – Most are multicellular Examples - mushrooms / Yeast

Examples - fungi

Kingdom - Plantae PLANTS Non-vascular Vascular Form spores vascular tissues Ex. Moss Seedless. Seed bearing spore bearing Ex. FERNS Angiosperm Gymnosperm Flowering Pine trees Plants Monocots Dicots

Kingdom - Plantae EUKARYOTE - NO Nucleus Chloroplasts Chlorophyll Autotrophs / producers Cell Wall - made of cellulose Multicellular - more than one cell Complex cells w/ tissues & organ Most have both male and female reproductive structures

Kingdom Animalia

Kingdom- Animalia EUKARYOTE- Have a NUCLEUS Complex Cells Highly Mobile Heterotrophs Lack a Cell Wall No Chloroplast Members of the animal kingdom are found in the most diverse environments in the world. Animal kingdom is the largest kingdom with over 1 million known

Kingdom Animalia

Classification - Scientific Names Scientific Name ( Homo sapien) Two parts – 1 st name = Genus (Capitalized) – 2 nd name = species (NOT capitalized) Written in italics or underlined – Homo sapien or Homo sapien

General Information – Aristotle – father of classification – Linneaus – Developed our current system – Taxonomy – is classification – Classification minimizes confusion – System provides information – Classify by traits & evolutionary histories
