Which of the six kingdoms contains organisms that are not all in the same clade?

Protistia

Domain Eukarya

conisists of all organisms that have a nucleus, comprises the four remaining into major groups of the six kingdom system: protisita, fungi, plantae, and anamilia

Genome

entire set of genetic information that an organism carries in it's DNA

Protista

eukaryote, cell walls of cellulose in some, some have chloroplasts, most unicellular, some colonial, some multicellular, autotroph or heterotroph

Plantae

eukaryote, cell walls of cellulose, chloroplasts, most multicellular, some green alge unicellular, autotroph

Fungi

eukaryote, cell walls of chitin, most unicellular, some multicellular, heterotroph

Animalia

eukaryote, no cell walls or chloroplast, multicellular, heterotroph

Domain

larger, more inclusive taxonomic catagory than a kingdom

Lipid

macromolecule made mostly from carbon and hydrogen atoms, includes fats, oils and waxes

Domain Bacteria

members are unicellular and prokaryotic, cells have thick rigid walls that surround a cell membrane, the cell walls contain a substance called peptidoglycan, the domain corresponds to the kingdom eubacteria

Archebacteria Examples

methanogens, halophilies

Plantae Examples

mosses, ferns, flowering plants

Fungi Examples

mushrooms, yeasts

Autotroph

organism that can capture energy from sunlight or chemicals and use it to produce its own food from inorganic compounds; also called a producer

Heterotroph

organism that obtains food by consuming other livjing things, also called a consumer

Eukaryote

organism whose cells contain a nucleus

Eubacteria

prokaryote, cell walls with peptidoglycan, unicellular, autotroph or heterotroph

Archaebacteria

prokaryote, cell walls without peptidoglycan, unicellular, autotroph or heterotroph

Animalia Examples

sponges, worms, insects, fishes, mammals

Eubacteria Examples

streptococcus, escherichia coli

Genomics

study of whole genomes, including genes and their funtions

Paraphyletic

there is no way to put all unicellular eukaryotes into a colade that contains a single common ancestor, all of it's decendants and only those descendents.

Domain Archaea

unicellular and prokaryotic, live in extreme enviroments, cell walls lack peptidodlycan, die from oxygen, cell membranes contain usual lipids that are not found in any other organism, the domain archae corresponds to the kingdom archeaebacteria

Paraphletic

unicellular organism that lacks a nucleus

Which kingdoms include heterotrophs?

Eubacteria and Archaebacteria include only prokaryotes. Fungi and Anamalia contain only heterotrophs.

Which domain contains multicellular organisms?

The domain Eukarya contains multicellular organisms.

Which kingdom have cells that lack cell walls?

The kingdom Animalia has cells that lack cell walls.

Which kingdoms include eukaryotes?

The kingdoms "Protista" Fungi, Plantae and Anamalia all include eukaryotes.

Protistia Examples

amoeba, paramecium, slime molds, giant kelp
