Domains and Kingdoms § 3 Domains Eubacteria u Archaea u Eukarya u § Kingdoms u Eubacterai, Archaebacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae & Animalia Regents Biology
Eubacteria Kingdom § Prokaryote u u u u one-celled organisms Cell walls of peptidoglycan Autotroph or heterotroph Asexual reproduction Aerobic and anaerobic no organelles § have cell membrane § have DNA most common form of life on Earth incredible number of different kinds (streptococcus, E. coli) Regents Biology
Archaebacteria Kingdom § Prokaryote § Ancient bacteria u u u live in extreme environments § high heat (thermophiles) § high salt (halophiles) the most ancient creatures living on Earth today Cell walls without peptidoglycan Regents Biology
Protista Kingdom § Classification criteria eukaryotes u not animal, plant or fungi u That’s more of what they’re not & not what they are! Regents Biology
Protist Diversity § A great variety in ways of life u u u u one-celled to many-celled autotrophs (photosynthesis) to heterotrophs (have to eat) asexual to sexual reproduction pathogens to beneficial sessile to mobile aerobic ex. Amoeba, euglena, Regents Biology
Fungi Kingdom § Classification criteria eukaryotes u Asexual or sexual u Aerobic respiration u heterotrophs § must feed off of others u mostly multicellular § except one-celled yeasts u cell wall § Made of chitin u Ex. Mushrooms, Yeast u Regents Biology
Plant Kingdom § General characteristics Eukaryotes, multicellular u autotrophs, photosynthetic u cell wall u § cellulose not mobile u Sexual reproduction u Aerobic respiration u Regents Biology
Animal Kingdom § Eukaryote § Heterotrophs u must ingest others for nutrients § Multicellular u complex bodies § No cell walls u allows active movement § Sexual reproduction § Aerobic Respiration Regents Biology
