Unit 9 - Taxonomy

Living Organisms • Living organisms are grouped into 3 broad categories called DOMAINS • Domains – Archaea – Bacteria – Eukarya

Each Domain has different Kingdoms that belong with it • Domain Archaea – Kingdom Archaebacteria • Domain Bacteria – Kingdom Eubacteria • Domain Eukarya – Kingdom Animalia – Kingdom Plantae – Kingdom Fungi – Kingdom Protista

Kingdom Eubacteria Streptococcus pyogenes Escheria coli http: //lenta. ru/news/2005/09/30/bacteria/ http: //www. microscopyconsulting. com

Kingdom Eubacteria • • • Domain Bacteria Prokaryote Cell wall, peptidoglycan Unicellular Autotrophic & heterotrophic Can be the cause of many different diseases

Kingdom Archaebacteria Halophile (salt lover) Methanogen http: //www. star. ucl. ac. uk/~rhdt/diplom a/lecture_6/ http: //home. arcor. de/mpaetzold 2001 /astrobio 011109. html

Kingdom Archaebacteria • • • Domain Archaea Prokaryote Cell wall, no peptidoglycan Unicellular Autotrophic & Heterotrophic Known as Extremophiles – live in harsh conditions • Earliest organisms to have lived
