1. Characteristics of Domains & Kingdoms

2. Objective: Distinguish between each of the 3 domains
Objective: Distinguish characteristics of each of the 6 kingdoms

3. NGSSS
SC.912.L.15.6
Discuss distinguishing characteristics of the domains and kingdoms of living organisms.

4. Eubacteria Prokaryotic Cell wall with Peptidoglycan Unicellular
Autotrophic/Heterotrophic
Examples:
E. Coli
Lactobacillus
Steptococcus

5. ArchaeBacteria Prokaryotic Cell wall without Peptidoglycan Unicellular
Autotrophic
Examples: (Extreme Bacteria)
Methanogens – Methane Producers
Thermophiles - Extreme temperatures
Halophiles - Extreme salinity

6. “Protists” Currently being reconsidered for 5 different kingdoms.
Eukaryotic
Cell walls made of cellulose
Some have chloroplasts
Unicellular, multicellular, colonial
Heterotrophic & Autotrophic
Examples:
Amoebas
Paremiceum
Kelp
Euglena

7. Fungi Eurkaryotic Cell wall made of chitin (similar to insect shell)
Most multicellular, some unicellular
Heterotrophic
Direct diffusion of nutrients thru cell wall
Examples:
Mushrooms
Yeast
More related to animals
than plants – store
energy as glycogen
instead of starch

8. Plantae Eukaryotic Cell wall composed of cellulose Chloroplasts
Multicellular
autotrophic
Examples:
Ferns
Mosses
Flowering plants

9. Animalia Eukaryotic No cell wall or chloroplast Multicellular
Heterotrophic
Examples:
Sponges
Worms
Fishes
Bears

10. What Am I?
Eukaryotic

11. What Am I? Eurkaryotic Multicellular Cell wall made of chitin
Heterotrophic

12. What Am I?
Unicellular
Eukaryotic
Presence of Chloroplast
