1. The Six Kingdoms

2. Archaebacteria Ancient
Prokaryotes- no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles
Unicellular-single-celled organisms
Live in extreme environments
Obtain energy from chemosynthesis
Autotrophs or Heterotrophs-depending on the species

4. Eubacteria Germs “True” Bacteria
Prokaryotes-no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles
Unicellular
Autotrophs or Heterotrophs depending on the species
These make us sick, but help us, as well
Ex. Streptococcus, Pneumococcus

6. Protista Eukaryotes
Multicellular or Unicellular depending on the species
Live in moist environments
Lack complex organ systems
Autotrophs or Heterotrophs depending on the species
Examples: amoeba, paramecium, slime and water molds, algae (seaweed or kelp)

9. Fungi Eukaryotes Multicellular Have cell walls
Have thin filaments that penetrate soil or decaying organisms
Decomposers
Heterotrophs-no chloroplasts, they are not green
Examples: mushrooms, yeast, mold

11. Plantae Kingdom Eukaryotes
Multicellular
Have cell walls and chloroplasts
Autotrophs-make their own food through photosynthesis
Examples:ferns, flowers, trees, lily pads

13. Animalia Eukaryotes Heterotrophs Multicellular
Examples: Fish, Insects, Bears, etc.
