Domains Domain Archea Unicellular Prokaryotic Cell wall surrounds a cell membrane Cell wall does not contain peptidoglycan Can be autotrophic or heterotrophic Correspond to the Kingdom Archeabacteria Example: halophiles, methanogens

Domains Domain Eukarya Contains all organisms that have a nucleus (Eukaryotic) Can be autotrophic or heterotrophic Can be unicellular or multicellular Some have cell wall and some do not Corresponds to Kingdoms Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia

Kingdoms Kingdome Fungi: Heterotrophic Cell walls made of chitin Some unicellular, some multicellular Example: mushrooms, yeasts

Kingdoms Kingdom Plante Multicellular Autotrophic (photosynthetic) Nonmotile Cell walls of cellulose Have chloroplasts Example: mosses, ferns, flowering plants

Kingdoms Kingdom Animalia: Multicellular Heterotrophic No cell walls or chloroplasts Example: sponges, worms, insects, fishes, mammals
