1. A Look at Diversity
The Five Kingdoms

2. Animalia Plantae Fungi Protista or Protoctista Bacteria
The Five Kingdoms
Animalia
Plantae
Fungi
Protista or Protoctista
Bacteria

3. 1.Kingdom Animalia Multicellular – “made up of many cells”
Obtain food/energy by eating and digesting
Reproduce sexually
Can live in many different environments
Freshwater, soil, land, jungles, houses!
HUGE range of sizes
Microscopic worms to whales

5. 2. Kingdom Plantae Multicellular
Obtain energy by converting sun energy into their own “food” a.k.a. photosynthesis
Reproduce sexually! Really!
Come in diverse forms in a HUGE range of sizes
Mosses all the way to giant sequoias

8. 3. Kingdom Fungi
Also multicellular but some fungi (like yeast) are organisms made of a single cell
Obtain energy/food “opposite” from the way animals do…
Hugely diverse!

10. 4. Kingdom Protista
Live in water, moist habitats, soil, on trees, inside other organisms
Diverse ways that protists:
Reproduce
Obtain food/energy
Are shaped (and size varies, too)
Live their lives!
Diseases include malaria, giardia..

12. 5. Kingdom Bacteria Single celled Come in many different shapes
Can live in any environment
soil, really hot areas, places with little oxygen, etc...
Some obtain food/energy from the environment
Some obtain energy by converting the sun’s energy (photosynthesis)

13. 5. Kingdom Bacteria Used for environmental clean-up efforts.
Reproduce by dividing in two (to produce two “daughter” bacteria/cells)
Some exchange small amounts of DNA
