Overview of the
Six Kingdoms -
Vocabulary
Which term means one-celled? Many-celled?
multicellularunicellularWhich term means that the organism produces its own food? Consumes food?
autotrophheterotroph -
Vocabulary
Prokaryotic describes an organism with cells that have a cell membrane but do NOT have a nuclear membraneEukaryotic describes an organism with cells that have a cell membrane and a nuclear membrane -
Vocabulary
Autotrophic makes its own foodHeterotrophic gets nutrients from the food it consumes -
List of the Three Domains and
the Six Kingdoms1. Domain Bacteria
Kingdom Eubacteria
2. Domain Archaea
Kingdom Archaebacteria
3. Domain Eukarya
Kingdom Protista
Kingdom Fungi
Kingdom Plantae
Kingdom Animalia
-
Kingdom Eubacteria
Bacteria can live in many places on earth, inhabiting a wide variety of habitats, including other organismsUnicellularProkaryoticAutotrophic or heterotrophicThick cells walls with peptidoglycan -
Kingdom Eubacteria
Bacteria come in different shapes, such as round, spiral and rod-shaped. -
Kingdom Eubacteria
Bacteria can cause a wide variety of diseases, such as strep throat, food poisoning and the Black Death (bubonic plague of the Middle Ages) -
Kingdom Eubacteria
Bacteria also play an important role in decomposition, nitrogen fixation and human digestion (E. coli)Soybean root containing billions of bacteria
-
Kingdom Eubacteria
Procholorococcus an autotrophic bacterium What does that mean about how it gets its nutrients? -
Kingdom Eubacteria
Bacteria from an Nitrifying Trickle Filter (NTF) stained with acridene orange. The stain makes
DNA appear yellow and
RNA appear orange. -
Kingdom Archaebacteria
Bacteria that live in extreme habitats, such as hot springs, geysers, volcanic hot pools, brine pools, black smokersUnicellularProkaryoticAutotrophic or heterotrophicCell walls without peptidoglycan -
Kingdom Archaebacteria
Morning Glory Pool in Yellowstone National Park note the bright colors from the archaebacteria growing in the extremely hot water.
-
Kingdom Archaebacteria
Some like it hot! Bacillus infernus -
Kingdom Archaebacteria
Archaebacteria can live deep in the ocean near geothermal vents called black smokersThere is no light, so they carry out chemosynthesis instead of photosynthesis -
Kingdom Protista
Extremely diverse groupEukaryoticMost unicellular, some colonial, some multicellularAutotrophic and heterotrophicSome with cell walls containing cellulose; some carry out photosynthesis with chloroplasts -
Kingdom Protista
Volvox a colonial protist
Euglena - autotrophic
A slime mold
Amoeba - heterotrophic
-
Kingdom Fungi
EukaryoticMost are multicellularHeterotrophic (decomposers)Cell walls made of chitin -
Kingdom Fungi
Stilton cheese
Bread mold
-
Kingdom Plantae
EukaryoticMulticellularAutotrophicCell wall of cellulose; chloroplasts present -
Kingdom Plantae
-
Kingdom Animalia
EukaryoticMulticellularHeterotrophicNo cell walls, no chloroplasts -
Kingdom Animalia
Coral snake
Sponge
Flatworm
Octopus
Jellyfish
Bear
