Six Kingdoms
2
Key terms Autotrophic – Producer -makes its own food Heterotrophic – Consumer -can’t make its own food – consumes other organisms Unicellular – one cell Multicellular – many cells Prokaryote – has no nucleus or membrane bound organelles Eukaryote – has nucleus and organelles
3
3 Kingdom Animalia (Animals) Multicellular Heterotrophs consume food Feeds on plants or animals Moves Eukaryotic No cell walls
4
4 Kingdom Plantae (Plants) Multicellular Autotrophic Photosynthesis Cell walls made of cellulose Eukaryote
5
5 Kingdom Fungi Multicellular, except yeast Absorptive heterotrophs (digest food outside their body and then absorb it) Cell walls made of chitin Can’t move Decomposers Eukaryote
6
6 yeast Giant puffballs range from golf ball size to as large as a watermelon
7
7 Kingdom Protista (Protist) Unicellular (most) and multicellular Food: autotrophic or heteroprophic (euglena does both) Moves Eukaryotes Some have cell walls w/cellulose - some don’t have cell walls

euglena

9 Eubacteria, some of which cause human diseases, are present in almost all habitats on earth. Unicellular Prokaryote some heterotropic – decomposers some autotophic some move Cell walls w/peptidoglycan. Many bacteria are important environmentally and commercially. Kingdom Eubacteria
11
11. Archaeabacteria live in harsh environments and may represent the first cells to have evolved. Some get energy through chemosynthesis Cell walls without pepidoglycan Prokaryote Unicellular Kingdom Archeabacteria
12
12 Archaeabacteria in Deep-Sea Hydrothermal Vent Environments use chemosynthesis to obtain energy.
13
13 Finding Archaeabacteria : The hot springs of Yellowstone National Park, USA, were among the first places Archaea were discovered. The coloring comes from the massive amount of archaebacteria (which are chemo-synthesizers)
14
14 Archaebacteria In 1983, scientists took samples from a spot deep in the Pacific Ocean where hot gases and molten rock boiled into the ocean form the Earth’s interior. To their surprise they discovered unicellular (one cell) organisms in the samples. These organisms are today classified in the kingdom, Archaebacteria.
