Eukarya

3. Each Domain has different Kingdoms that belong with it
Domain Archaea
Kingdom Archaebacteria

Kingdom Protista

4. Kingdom Eubacteria Escheria coli Streptococcus pyogenes

5. Kingdom Eubacteria Domain Bacteria Prokaryote Cell wall, peptidoglycan
Unicellular
Autotrophic & heterotrophic
Can be the cause of many different diseases
