1. Six Kingdoms of Life
Summary for Ecology

2. Taxonomy Who came up with Taxonomy? Linneaus
What are the levels of classification?

3. Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species

4. Six Kingdoms
Archaebacteria
Eubacteria
Protists
Fungi
Plants
Animals

5. Archaebacteria Oldest form of life Singe cell organism (unicellular)
Found in extreme environments
Geysers
Hotsprings
Volcanic ocean vents

7. Eubacteria Second oldest form of life
Single cell organism (unicellular)
Most familiar bacteria
Streptococcus
Lactobacillus
Staphylococcus

9. Protists “Odds and Ends” kingdom
All microscopic organisms that are not plants, not animal, not bacteria, and not fungi.
Single cell organism (unicellular)
Protozoa, Amoeba

11. Fungi Most are multi-cellular organism Mold, mildew, mushrooms
Some are very important to ecosystems or as food.
Some cause diseases – ringworm, and athlete’s foot

13. Plants Second largest kingdom Multi-cellular organisms
Producers (make their own food)
Without plants life as we know it would not exist.

15. Animals Largest kingdom Multi-cellular Consumers – must eat for energy
Over 1 million known species

17. Scientific Names
Binomial Nomenclature
Genus species
Ex. Homo sapien

19. Classwork Make a List of the organisms in your bag (use common name)
Skip 4 lines each
For each organism in your bag, Identify which Domain and Kingdom the organism belongs to.
THEN, write the scientific name
