1 All living things are classified into one of 6 kingdoms.
The six kingdoms are: Eubacteria (Monera) 2. Archaebacteria (Monera) 6. Animalia 4. Fungi 3. Protista 5. Plantae

2 ALL PLANTS: ARE MULTI-CELLULAR ARE MACROSCOPIC
Made of more than one cell. ARE MACROSCOPIC Can be seen with the naked eye.

3 PLANTAE Cell Wall Eukaryotic (has nucleus) Cell Wall
Large Vacuole (for storage) Photosynthesis Autotroph/Producer (make its own food)

4 PLANTS ARE DIVERSE Some plants are terrestrial Some plants are aquatic

5 Characteristics of Animals
All multicellular – Made of more than one cell Eukaryotes--cells with nucleus & organelles heterotrophs –Eat/hunt food for energy Nematode scallop Red jellyfish toad anglerfish Horseshoe crab copyright cmassengale 5

6 Q: Why is Kingdom Protista referred to as the “junk drawer”?
Microscopic Eukaryotic cells Most are single-celled Some are multi-cellular Live in moist areas Amoeba Diatoms Slime mold Q: Why is Kingdom Protista referred to as the “junk drawer”? A: Protists are all the organisms that don’t quite match all the characteristics of the other kingdoms

7 What are the three types of protista?
Types of protists What are the three types of protista? Fungus-like SLIME MOLDS AND MILDEW Plant-like ALGAE Animal-like PROTOZOA HETEROTROPHS MOVEMENT STRUCTURE DECOMPOSER AUTOTROPHIC PIGMENTS

8 FUNGI Microscopic/Macroscopic Eukaryotic cells Most are multi-celled
Some are uni-cellular Decomposers Live in moist, warm areas Cell Walls made of Chitin

9 Eubacteria Cell Structure: Size: Microscopic
Prokaryotic (small and simple) cells No nucleus (brain of the cell) No organelles (tiny organs of the cell) Single-celled – only 1 cell big / unicellular

10 Eubacteria Nutrients: Environments: Most bacteria cannot
make their own food and therefore must live in or on other organisms Environments: Found in most common environments – water, soil, mouth … FYI: one of the oldest and most successful groups of organisms on earth Useful bacterium. Bacteria, such as Lactobacillus bulgaricus, which turns milk into yogurt, can be useful to humans.

11 Eubacteria Although some eubacteria cause diseases, such as strep throat and pneumonia, most bacteria are harmless and many are actually helpful. Lactobacillus casei Streptococcus

12 Archaebacteria Cell Structure: Prokaryotic cells No nucleus
No organelles Single celled Size: Microscopic

13 Archaebacteria Environments: Usually found ‘extreme’ environments
Such as highly acidic lakes, the bottom of the ocean, in ice flows, or in boiling hot mud or water Archaebacteria

14 Archaebacteria Nutrients:
Most archaebacteria have to digest chemicals not useable (toxic) by other organisms FYI: one of the oldest and most successful groups of organisms on earth
