6. 6 Kingdom System
A brief overview

7. The Six Kingdoms are…
Starting with the least complex to the most complicated and fancy..
1 – Archaebacteria
2 –Bacteria
3 – Protists
4 – Fungi
5 – Plants
6 - Animalia

8. Kingdom Archaebacteria
General Characteristics
1. Single-celled /Unicellular/One-celled
2. Prokaryotic
(cells have no formal nucleus)
3. Asexual reproduction by fission
4. Obtain food through chemosynthesis
5. Shapes:-cocci (round), bacilli (rod), spirilla (spiral)
6. Live in extreme conditions – very salty, hot, acidic

9. Kingdom Eubacteria Single-celled prokaryotic
3. Asexual reproduction by fission
4. Cannot make their own food
5. Come in 3 shapes – cocci, bacilli, spirilla
6. Most common bacteria
7. Found everywhere – even in your mouth 

10. Pictures of Bacteria
Bacilli
Spirilli
Cocci

11. Kingdom Protista Eukaryotic Cells (have a formal nucleus)
Single or multi-cellular
Asexual & Sexual Reproduction
Some are producers, others are consumers
5. Some move using: flagella, (whip-like tail), cilia (hair like projections) or pseudopods (false feet)
Watch pseudopods in ACTION

12. Protists in Action paramecium Euglena Green Algae Slime Mold Amoeba
Euglena

Cytoplasm

15. Kingdom Fungi Eukaryotic cells & Multi-cellular Unable to move
Sexual & Asexual reproduction
Feed off dead organisms for nutrients (saprophytes or decomposers)

16. Pictures of Fungi
Bread Mold
Death Angel
Basidiomycota
Sac Fungi

17. Kingdom Plantae
Eukaryotic Cells w/ cell walls, chloroplasts, & chlorophyll
Multi-cellular
Sexual & Asexual reproduction
Capable of photosynthesis – makes its own food using sunlight (autotroph/producer)
Immobile (no movement)

18. Plantae Phyla/Divisons
1. Bryophyta: moss, liverwort
Small, no leaves or roots
(sporophyte/gametophyte)
2. Pterophyta: ferns, horse tails
- seedless, vascular plant
3. Gymnosperm: pine tree, junipers
- needle-like leaves, evergreen, cones
- Seeds in cones
4. Angiosperms: rose, apple tree, tulip
- flowering, vascular, leaves, stems & roots
- seeds in flower or fruit

19. Pictures of Plants

20. Kingdom Animalia General Characteristics: Many-celled & Eukaryotic
Heterotrophs/Consumers – cannot make their own food, rely on other organisms for nutrients
All are capable of sexual reproduction (some reproduce Asexually)
Capable of movement in many forms
