1. Introduction to the Six Kingdoms

2. Archaeabacteria Type of cell: Prokaryotes Number of Cells: Unicellular
Structures:
Have cell walls
Food/Energy:
Can be autotroph, chemotroph, or heterotroph:
Chemotroph - makes food from chemicals instead of sun
Reproduction:
Mostly asexual reproduction
Movement:
Passive; no locomotion
Habitat:
Live in extreme environments
Ex: Can live without oxygen

3. Archaebacteria Members
Examples:
Methanogens
Produce fuel (ex: methane gas)
Halophiles – “salt – lovers”
Thermophiles – “heat-lovers”

4. Eubacteria Type of cell: Number of cells: Structures: Food/Energy:
Prokaryote
Number of cells:
Unicellular
Structures:
Cell wall
Food/Energy:
Heterotrophs, Chemotrophs, and Autotrophs
Reproduction:
Mostly asexual reproduction
Binary fission
Reproduces very quickly
Movement:
Flagella
Habitat:
They can be found everywhere
The more common bacteria

5. Eubacteria Members Three main shapes: Can be: Round, Rod, Spiral
Harmful
Many cause illness
Ex: TB, strep, tetanus, food poisoning
Helpful
Decomposers (recycling)
Used in making food
Produce fuel
Environmental cleanup
E. coli
Streptococcus
Lactobacillus
(used in yogurt)

6. Protists The miscellaneous “junk drawer” kingdom Type of cell:
Eukaryote
Number of cells:
Mostly unicellular; a few multicellular
Structures:
Cell wall and/or chloroplasts in some groups
Food/Energy;
Autotrophs & Heterotrophs
Reproduction:
Mostly asexual reproduction (binary fission)
Locomotion:
Flagella, pseudopod, cilia
Habitat:
Live in moist environments

7. Protist Members Plant-like: Animal-like: Fungus-like: Autrotrophs
Ex: Euglena, diatoms, & algae
Animal-like:
Heterotrophs
Ex: Amoeba, Paramecium
Fungus-like:
Decomposers
Ex: Slime mold, downy mold

8. Fungi Type of Cell: Number of Cells: Structures: Food/Energy:
Eukaryote
Number of Cells:
Mostly Multicellular; One unicellular
Structures:
Cell wall, hyphae, fruiting bodies
Food/Energy:
Heterotrophs & Decomposers
Reproduction:
Mostly sexual reproduction (spores)
Some asexual (budding)
Locomotion:
None
Habitat:
Moist, warm environments
Not direct sunlight

9. Fungi Members
Mushrooms,
Molds
Yeast (unicellular)
Sac Fungi

10. Plants Cell Type: Number of Cells: Cell Structures: Food/Energy:
Eukaryote
Number of Cells:
Multicellular
Cell Structures:
Cell wall, chloroplasts, large vacuole
Food/Energy:
Autotrophs
Reproduction:
Mostly sexual reproduction
Locomotion:
None

11. Plant Members
300,000 have been found…including trees, flowers, grasses, mosses etc.
Mosses
Ferns
Flowering Plants
Grasses
Conifers

13. Animals Type of cell: Eukaryote Number of cells: Multicellular
Structures:
No cell walls
Invertebrate & Vertebrate
Food/Energy:
Heterotroph
Reproduction:
Mostly sexual
Some asexual
Movement:
Walk, swim, fly, crawls, etc.
Habitat:
Everywhere

14. Animal Members Over a million identified species.
97 percent have no backbone
3% are vertebrates..Mammals ,birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish
Sponge and coral
Worms
Arthropods
Cnidarians
Mollusks
