Other Characteristics
Example(s)
Archae-bacteria
Prokaryote
Unicellular
Autotroph or Heterotroph
Cell wall; lives in harsh environments (ex. salty, high temperatures); autotrophic cells do not contain chloroplasts
Halophiles – salt lovers; live in the Dead Sea 
Thermophiles – heat lovers; live in thermal vents in the ocean
Eubacteria
Cell wall; live almost everywhere; can be helpful or harmful
E-coli
Streptococcus
Protists
Eukaryote
Mostly unicelluar
Autotrophs may have chloroplasts; Live in watery environments
Ameba 
Euglena
 Paramecium
Fungi
Mostly multicellular
Heterotroph
Cell wall made of chitin; many are decomposers or parasites
Mushrooms
 Mold
 Yeast
Plants
Multicellular
Autotroph
Cell wall made of cellulose; cells have chloroplasts; no structures for movement
Ferns
Pine tree
Sunflower
Animals
No cell wall; most have structures for movement; most complex kingdom of all living things
Sponge
Insects (ex: dragonfly)
Mammals (ex: koala) 

3. Introduction to the Six Kingdoms
BrainPop Video – Six Kingdoms

4. Archaeabacteria Type of cell: Prokaryotes Number of Cells: Unicellular
Structures:
May have a cell wall (not all do)
Food/Energy:
Can be autotroph, chemotroph, or heterotroph:
Chemotroph - makes food from chemicals instead of sun
Reproduction:
Mostly asexual reproduction
Movement:
Most do not move; those that move use flagella
Habitat:
Live in extreme environments
Ex: Can live without oxygen

5. Archaebacteria Members
Examples:
Methanogens
Produce fuel (ex: methane gas)
Halophiles – “salt – lovers”
Thermophiles – “heat-lovers”

6. Eubacteria Type of cell: Number of cells: Structures: Food/Energy:
Prokaryote
Number of cells:
Unicellular
Structures:
Cell wall
Food/Energy:
Heterotrophs, Chemotrophs, and Autotrophs
Reproduction:
Mostly asexual reproduction
Binary fission
Reproduces very quickly
Movement:
Flagella
Habitat:
They can be found everywhere
The more common bacteria

7. Eubacteria Members Three main shapes: Can be: Round, Rod, Spiral
Harmful
Many cause illness
Ex: TB, strep, tetanus, food poisoning
Helpful
Decomposers (recycling)
Used in making food
Produce fuel
Environmental cleanup
E. coli
Streptococcus
Lactobacillus
(used in yogurt)

8. Archaebacteria & Eubacteria

Microslide Viewer Activity – Harmful & Helpful Bacteria

9. Warm Up
Look for MC question about Bacteria characteristics. Maybe a chart or observations.

10. BrainPop Video - Protists
The miscellaneous “junk drawer” kingdom
Type of cell:
Eukaryote
Number of cells:
Mostly unicellular; a few multicellular
Structures:
Cell wall and/or chloroplasts in some groups
Food/Energy;
Autotrophs & Heterotrophs
Reproduction:
Mostly asexual reproduction (binary fission)
Locomotion:
Flagella, pseudopod, cilia
Habitat:
Live in moist environments
BrainPop Video - Protists

11. Protist Members Plant-like: Animal-like: Fungus-like: Autrotrophs
Ex: Euglena, diatoms, & algae
Animal-like:
Heterotrophs
Ex: Amoeba, Paramecium
Fungus-like:
Decomposers
Ex: Slime mold, downy mold

12. Microslide Viewer Activities
Finish “Harmful & Helpful Bacteria”
Protists (2 different Microslide sets)
