1 Six Kingdoms Activity 8C compare characteristics of taxonomic groups, including archaea, bacteria, protists, fungi, plants, and animals Teacher Instructions: As students enter the classroom, give each student a picture of one of the organisms. instruct students to answer the following questions: 1. Is your object/organism alive? 2. List 3 – 5 characteristics that let you to this conclusion. Instruct students classify themselves into one of the six kingdoms signs posted in different corners of the room. Encourage discussion and tell students to make sure they are in the right spot by reading though the characteristics at each station. Have each group introduce their kingdom, have each student share their organism and describe to the class one characteristic that their organism exhibits that classifies them in that group.

2 Warm Up: Obtain a picture card and answer the following questions.
1. What is your organism/object and is it alive? 2. List 3-5 characteristics that let you to this conclusion. Don’t forget to read Mrs. K’s Board on the cart for your Agenda!

3 KINGDOM ARCHEA Single celled bacteria with no peptidoglycan
Prokaryote = no nucleus Can be chemoautrotrophs or heterotrophs Live in EXTREME environments such as: Thermophiles – extreme heat Thermoacidophiles – Convert sulfur into food in extreme heat Methanogens – produce methane gas in low oxygen conditions

4 KINGDOM BACTERIA Single celled bacteria WITH peptidoglycan
Prokaryotes = no nucleus Can live in most environments Some can move with flagella or pili Reproduce Asexually with Conjugation (genetic exchange)

5 KINGDOM PROTISTA Eukaryotes = Nucleus Some are Animal-like:
Heterotrophic (eat food), move around, BUT are single celled Some are Plant-like: Multicellular, Photosynthetic BUT have no cell wall Some are Fungus-like: Multicellular, Heterotrophic decomposers, BUT no cell wall. Protists can be: sedentary or Mobile: cilia, pseudopods, flagella Single-Celled or Multi-Celled or colonial Asexual or sexual reproducers

6 KINGDOM FUNGI Eukaryotes = nucleus All are heterotrophs
Multicellular or Unicellular or colonial Some are parasites, Some are decomposers called detritivores. Cell walls of Chitin (*Kytin)

7 KINGDOM PLANTAE Eukaryotes = Nucleus
Autotrophs (producers) that produce energy through photosynthesis in their chloroplasts. Cell Walls of Cellulose All are multicellular Sexual Reproduction (usually)

8 KINGDOM ANIMALIA Eukaryotes = Nucleus All are multicellular
All are heterotrophs No cell walls Reproduce sexually and have no cell walls. Dorsal dorsal nerve cord coordinates mobility and life functions.

9 Thermophiles – Single celled, no nucleus, Loves HEAT!
Thermoacidophiles – Single celled, no nucleus, lives in hot sulfur

10 Halophiles – Single celled, no nucleus, Loves extreme salt
Anaerobes – Single celled, no nucleus, Poisoned by O2

11 E. Coli – Single Celled, no nucleus, lives in your intestines
Spirillum – Single celled, no nucleus, contain flagella

12 Cynobacteria – Single celled, no nucleus, aquatic habitats
Cocci Bacteria – Single celled, no nucleus, infectious

13 Amoeba – single celled, with nucleus, captures prey with pseudopods
Paramecium – single celled, with nucleus, move with specialized cilia to capture prey

14 Euglena – Single celled, with nucleus, photosynthetic, moves with flagella to catch prey
Algae – multicellular, photosynthetic, contain nucleus, no cell walls

15 Volvox – Single cell colonies, contain nucleus
Slime mold – Multicellular, heterotrophic, contains nucleus, no cell walls

16 Mold – Multicellular, contain nucleus, heterotrophic, cell walls of chitin
Penicillin – Multicellular, contain nucleus, heterotrophic, cell walls of chitin

17 Yeast – Single Celled, contain nucleus, heterotrophic, cell walls contain chitin
Mushroom – Multicellular, contain nucleus, heterotrophic, cell walls contain chitin

18 Moss – Multicellular, contains nucleus, photosynthetic, cell walls of cellulose
Ferns – Multicellular, contains nucleus, photosynthetic, cell walls of cellulose

19 Oak Tree – multicellular, photosynthetic, cell walls of cellulose
Orchid – multicellular, photosythetic, cell walls of cellulose

20 Tube Sponge – Multicellular, heterotrophic, mobile as larve
Earthworm – Multicellular, heterotrophic, mobile

21 Tiger – Multicellular, heterotrophic, mobile
Cardinal – Multicellular, heterotrophic, mobile

22 Copperhead snake – Multicellular eukaryote, heterotrophic, mobile
Human? – Multicellular eukaryote, heterotrophic, mobile

23 Diamond – composed of carbon
Moon – Composed of metallic iron, rotates around the Earth

24 HIV Virus – Composed of protein and DNA, not made of cells, does not eat. Can reproduce only with a host.
