The Six Kingdoms

IntroductionSix Kingdoms

-organized according to type of cells, ability to make food, number of cells in body

1. Archaebacteria2. Eubacteria3. Protists4. Fungi5. Plants6. Animals

TerminologyGetting food

autotrophs – make own foodhetertrophs – get food from other sources

Type of cellsprokaryotic – no nucleuseukaryotic – with a nucleus

Terminology continuedBody type

unicellular – made of only one cellmulticellular – made of more than one cell;

-have cells with special functions Reproduction

sexual – need male and female parentsasexual – need only one parent

Archaebacteria-”ancient bacteria”-existed before dinosaurs-live in extreme environments

-hot springs-acidic environment-methane

-unicellular prokaryotes-some autotrophs, some heterotrophs

EubacteriaChemical makeup is different from that

of archaebacteria.-unicellular prokaryote-some autotrophs, some heterotrophs-some go through photosynthesis

Protista-“odds and ends” kingdom because

its organisms are pretty different from one another

-most unicellular, some multicellular-eukaryotes-some autotrophs-some heterotrophs

Similarities

Fungi-mushrooms, mold, and mildew-most are multicellular, some (like yeast)

are unicellular-eukaryotes-all are heterotrophs-eat dead or decaying

organisms

Plants-all plants are

multicellular-all are eukaryotes-plants are autotrophs-both sexual and

asexual-plant cells have cell

walls-contain chloroplasts

used in photosynthesis

Animals-all are multicellular-all are eukaryotes-all are heterotrophs
