2. Kingdom Archaebacteria
Live in harsh, extreme environments like hot springs, deep ocean vents.
Unicellular
Autotrophic or Heterotrophic
Decomposers
Asexual reproduction – binary fission
Prokaryotic
Ex: Extremophiles, Thermophiles, Methanogens, Halophiles
Domain: Archae

3. Kingdom Eubacteria Found everywhere! Unicellular
Autotrophic or Heterotrophic
Asexual Reproduction, Binary Fission
Prokaryotic
Decomposers
Ex: Streptococcus, Bacillus,
Cell wall made out of peptidoglycan
Domain Bacteria

4. Protista Found in swamps, wet environments, ponds
Unicellular or multicellular
Autotrophic or heterotrophic
Can be decomposers
Some have cell walls
Asexual
Eukaryotic
Ex: Amoeba, paramecium, euglena, plankton, algae
Domain: Eukarya

5. Fungi Found everywhere – they like moist environments
Multicellular (mushroom) unicellular (yeast)
Heterotroph – absorbs nutrients – extracellular digestion
Asexual and sexual
Cell wall made of chitin
Ex: mushroom, mold, mildew, yeast
Eukaryotic
Domain: Eukarya

6. Plantae Found everywhere Multicellular Autotrophic – photosynthesis
Asexual or sexual
Cell wall made of cellulose
Eukaryotic
Ex: plants, trees, bush, flower, moss
Domain: Eukarya

7. Animalia Aquatic / Terrestrial Multicellular Heterotrophic
Sexual – gametes egg / sperm
No cell wall
Eukaryotic
Ex: humans, birds, fish, cat, etc.
