3. All Living things are composed of CELLS Two Types: * Prokaryotic * Eukaryotic

4. Prokaryotic Cells Prokaryotic Cells primitive, primitive, ‘before kernal’ NO NUCLEUS NO NUCLEUS Lack internal membranes Lack internal membranes Ex. Bacteria (such as Anthrax or e. coli) e. coli) Prokaryotic Cells (Bacteria)

5. Eukaryotes (you-carry-oats), ‘true kernal’ contains a “TRUE NUCLEUS” ‘true kernal’ contains a “TRUE NUCLEUS” Has organelles Has organelles

6. Taxonomy: The science of naming and classifying organisms The science of naming and classifying organisms This scheme consists of different levels of classification, each more comprehensive than the one below it. This scheme consists of different levels of classification, each more comprehensive than the one below it.

7. Why Classify Organisms? To make diversity less overwhelming. To make diversity less overwhelming. To reflect phylogeny (evolutionary history). To reflect phylogeny (evolutionary history). To avoid ambiguity, so there is one name everyone can use for identification. To avoid ambiguity, so there is one name everyone can use for identification. Relationships among organisms are evident in their names Relationships among organisms are evident in their names

24. Fungi: Ascocarps (reproductive parts) of scarlet cup, truffles and morel mushrooms.

25. Fungi:

26. Fungi: The Hyphae of this Fungi are adapted to trap and constrict nematodes (small round worms) in less than a second. The Fungi then penetrates and digests its inner tissues.

27. Fungi: Fairy rings are caused by fairy’s dancing in a circle on a moonlight night. Afterward the tired fairies sit and rest on the mushrooms, but some are sat on by toads. This is why they are called “toadstools.” or

28. Fungi: A mythical “fairy ring” is caused by the underground expansion of the fungi’s mycelium. At the edge of its’ expansion it sends up the mushrooms, the reproductive portion of the fungi.
