domain and kingdom
What are the six kingdoms?
eubacteria, archaebacteria, protists, fungi, plants, animals
What are the characteristics of domain - eukarya?
eukaryote
What are the characteristics of kingdom - plantae?
eukaryote, multicellular, autotrophs, cell walls, producers,
What are the characteristics of kingdom - animana
eukaryote, multicellular, heterotroph, no cell wall, consumers
What are the characteristics of kingdom - fungi?
eukaryotes, most multicellular, heterotroph, cell walls, decomposers
What are the characteristics of kingdom - protists?
eukaryotes, unicellular/multicellular, autotroph/heterotroph, some have cell wall, consumers/producers/decomposers
what is an unicellular?
having or consisting of a single cell
What are the characteristics of domain - bacteria?
most common bacteria, prokaryote, unicellular, can be autotroph/heterotroph, some have cell wall, producers/decomposers/parasites
what is an autotroph?
organism that can make its own food using light or chemical energy
what is a heterotroph?
organism that can't make its own food
what is a consumer?
organism that eats other organisms for food
what is a producer?
produces nutrients for consumers
What are the characteristics of domain - archaea?
prokaryote, unicellular, can be autotroph/heterotroph, some have cell wall, live in extreme conditions
what are the 4 kingdoms of the domain eukarya?
protists, fungi, plants, animals
what is a prokaryote?
unicellular organisms having cells lacking membrane - bound nuclei
what is an eukaryote?
an organism with cells characteristic of all life that forms except bacterias
What are the 3 domains?
bacteria, archaea, eukarya
What are the characteristics used to place organisms into domains and kingdoms?
cell type (prokaryote, eukaryote), cell organization (unicellular, multicellular) how nutrients are obtained (autotroph, heterotroph) do they have a cell wall, trophic level in food chain (producer, consumer, decomposer)
what is a multicellular?
consisting of many cells
