Kingdoms

Kingdoms and Domains There are six Kingdoms Animal Plant Fungi Protist Archaebacteria Eubacteria

Eubacteria Prokaryotic Have cell wall No chloroplast or mitochondria Unicellular microorganisms Some autotrophic others photosynthetic Ex. Streptococcus, E. Coli

Archaea Prokaryote Cell wall No organelles Unicellular Autotrophs-Chemosynthesis Live in hot springs and thermal vents Mostly found in very extreme environments May have been the first form of life on Earth

Eukarya Eukaryotic Some have cell wall Protists “catch-all” group Can not be classified as plant, animal or fungi Mostly single celled organisms Some are heterotrophic, others are autotrophic (photosynthetic) Eukaryotic Some have cell wall All have mitochondria – some chloroplast. Most unicellular some multicellular Autotroph or heterotroph Ex. Euglena, ameba, paramecium

Fungi Eukaryotes Cell wall made of chitin Has mitochondria Unicellular or Multicellular Heterotrophic Obtains nutrients from dead or decaying matter Examples: Yeast, molds, mushrooms

Plants Eukaryotic Cell wall- cellulose Both chloroplast & mitochondria Multicellular Autotrophic (photosynthetic) includes mosses, ferns, conifers, and flowering plants

Ex. Worms, insects, mammals Animals Eukaryotes Do not have cell walls mitochondria Multicellular Heterotrophic Ex. Worms, insects, mammals
