Monerans also known as eubacteria n Single celled n Microscopic n Have cell wall (peptidoglycan) n Can make their own food (autotroph) n & can’t (heterotroph) n No Nucleus (prokaryote)
Archaebacteria n Single cell n Prokaryotes n Live in extreme conditions (salt, ice, sulfur
hot pots) n Cell wall (different lipid structure than
eubacteria)
Protist n Single & multicelluar. n Microscopic n Both fungus, plant &animal characteristic n Have cell membrane, some have a cell wall n Autotrophic (chlorophyll) & Heterotrophic n eukaryotic
Fungi n Multicelled n Have cell membrane & cell wall (chitin) n Heterotroph (saprophytic) n Digest surrounding material
then absorb the nutrients n eukaryote
Plants n Autotroph (chlorophyll) n Multicellular n Have cell wall (cellulose) n Eukaryote n Respond to stimuli
Animals n heterotrophs n Multicellular eukaryote n Have cell (plasma) membrane
(phospholipid bi-layer) n Must be able to move sometime during life
span
Virus – where do they fit? n Non-living n Protein coat (capsule) protect genetic
material either (DNA or RNA)
