The Six Kingdoms
2
Directions Record all notes that have the following symbol on the slide
3
Classification Today (Linnaeus) 3 Domains Archae Bacteria Eukarya 3 Domains Archae Bacteria Eukarya Six Kingdoms Archaebacteria Eubacteria Protists Fungi Plants Animals
4
Three Ways Groups Were Determined Cell Type Eukaryotic Prokaryotic Number of Cells in the Body Unicellular Multi-cellular Means of Nutrition Autotrophs Heterotrophs Cell Type Eukaryotic Prokaryotic Number of Cells in the Body Unicellular Multi-cellular Means of Nutrition Autotrophs Heterotrophs
5
Three Additional Aspects of Each Group That We Will Note Cell Wall Components Chitin Cellulose Characteristics Examples Cell Wall Components Chitin Cellulose Characteristics Examples
6
Archaebacteria Prokaryotic cells Unicellular, Autotrophic & Heterotrophic Cell Wall-made of sugars & amino acids Formerly Kingdom Monera Found in extreme environments Hot boiling water/Thermal vents Anaerobic conditions Highly acidic environments Salt-loving (Halophiles), Methane-producing (Methanogens), Heat & Acid-Loving (Thermophiles) Prokaryotic cells Unicellular, Autotrophic & Heterotrophic Cell Wall-made of sugars & amino acids Formerly Kingdom Monera Found in extreme environments Hot boiling water/Thermal vents Anaerobic conditions Highly acidic environments Salt-loving (Halophiles), Methane-producing (Methanogens), Heat & Acid-Loving (Thermophiles)
7
Eubacteria Prokaryotic cells Unicellular Heterotrophs and Autotrophs Cell wall made of sugars & amino acids Formerly Kingdom Monera (Found Everywhere) Examples Three Types Streptococci Cocci E. coli Bacilli Samonella Spirilli Prokaryotic cells Unicellular Heterotrophs and Autotrophs Cell wall made of sugars & amino acids Formerly Kingdom Monera (Found Everywhere) Examples Three Types Streptococci Cocci E. coli Bacilli Samonella Spirilli
9
Protista Eukaryotic cells Most unicellular Most Heterotrophic Some have cell walls made up of cellulose or chitin Most diverse: contains microscopic organisms that are animal-like, plant-like, and fungus-like Examples (AL) Amoeba & Paramecium, (PL) Algae & Euglena, (FL) Slime Mold Eukaryotic cells Most unicellular Most Heterotrophic Some have cell walls made up of cellulose or chitin Most diverse: contains microscopic organisms that are animal-like, plant-like, and fungus-like Examples (AL) Amoeba & Paramecium, (PL) Algae & Euglena, (FL) Slime Mold
11
Fungi Eukaryotic cells Most are multi-cellular Heterotrophs Cell walls made of chitin Earth’s Decomposers Examples Mushrooms Mold Mildew Yeast Eukaryotic cells Most are multi-cellular Heterotrophs Cell walls made of chitin Earth’s Decomposers Examples Mushrooms Mold Mildew Yeast
13
Plantae Description Eukaryotic cells Multi-cellular Autotroph (Primary Producers) Cell walls made of cellulose Second largest kingdom Over 250,000 species Examples Flowering plants, Trees Mosses, Ferns Description Eukaryotic cells Multi-cellular Autotroph (Primary Producers) Cell walls made of cellulose Second largest kingdom Over 250,000 species Examples Flowering plants, Trees Mosses, Ferns
14
Kingdom Plantae multicellular - possess chloroplasts and cell walls make their own food - PHOTOSYNTHESIS Reproduce sexually – can be asexual Vascular plants are more advanced - they have evolved specialized tissues, xylem, which is involved in structural support and water conduction, and phloem, which functions in food conduction Nonvascular plants are usually no more than an inch or two in height because they do not have adequate support, which is provided by vascular tissues to other plants, to grow bigger multicellular - possess chloroplasts and cell walls make their own food - PHOTOSYNTHESIS Reproduce sexually – can be asexual Vascular plants are more advanced - they have evolved specialized tissues, xylem, which is involved in structural support and water conduction, and phloem, which functions in food conduction Nonvascular plants are usually no more than an inch or two in height because they do not have adequate support, which is provided by vascular tissues to other plants, to grow bigger

ONION CELLS FROM LAB – NOTE THE BOXY SHAPE OF PLANT CELLS & THE DISTINCT CELL WALL
17
Animalia Description Eukaryotic cells Multi-cellular Heterotrophs (Motile, Complex) No Cell walls Largest kingdom Over 1 million known species Examples Sponges, Worms, Insects, Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles, Birds, Mammals Description Eukaryotic cells Multi-cellular Heterotrophs (Motile, Complex) No Cell walls Largest kingdom Over 1 million known species Examples Sponges, Worms, Insects, Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles, Birds, Mammals
18
Kingdom Animalia multi-cellular organisms which ingest their food – HETEROTROPHS Reproduce sexually multi-cellular organisms which ingest their food – HETEROTROPHS Reproduce sexually
