Kingdoms U.1 L.2

  • 6 kingdoms : animalia, bacteria, fungi, protista, archaea, plantae

  • three domains : bacteria, archaea, eukarya

  • eukarya contains plantae, animalia, fungi & protista, all kingdoms are eukaryotic

  • bacteria / archaea are both prokaryotic

  • plants v. animals : plants photosynthesize therefore making them different kingdoms

  • classifying kingdoms : number of cells, cell wall material, nutrition (autotroph/heterotroph) and reproduction.

  • autotroph : captures energy from sunlight/abiotic substances (plants & sunlight)

  • heterotroph : obtains energy by consuming other organisms (humans & meat)

  • autotrophic photosynthetic

  • Bacteria : single celled prokaryotes, some are photosynthetic, live in a moist environment, peptidoglycan is found inside them (e. coli, streph throat)

  • Archaea : single celled prokaryotes, lives in harsh environments (extremophile), first organism to evolve on earth (halophiles)

  • protists : unicellular colonies of cells, most diverse kingdom, heterotroph and autotroph (amoeba, algae)

  • fungi : always heterotrophic most are multicellular, no chloroplats, cell wall made of chitin (ky-tin), (mushrooms, yeast)

  • plants : multicellular, eukaryotic, terrestrial, cell wall made of cellulose (rose, tree)

  • animals : multicellular, eukaryotic, no cell wall (sponge, whale)
