It is not always an easy thing to
tell the difference between living,
dead, and non-living things. Prior
to the 1600's many people
believed in Spontaneous
Generation.
There are some very general rules
to follow when trying to decide if
something is living,
dead,
or non-living.
There are six rules used
by scientists to classify
living things:
• Living things are made of cells.
• Living things obtain and use
energy.
• Living things grow and develop.
• Living things reproduce.
• Living things respond to their
environment.
• Living things adapt to their
environment.
To be considered alive, an object
must exhibit all of the
characteristics
of living things.
We know now that organisms are classified
into 7 levels.
KINGDOM
PHYLUM
CLASS
ORDER
FAMILY
GENUS
SPECIES
King Phillip’s class ordered five giant
snakes!!
All Living Things Need:
• energy
• water
• living space
• stable internal conditions.
All organisms are
presently divided into
6 kingdoms based on
the following:
Nucleus or No Nucleus
• Prokaryotic= no true nucleus
• Eukaryotic = presence of a
nucleus
Makes own Food or Eats Other
Organisms
• Autotrophs – organisms that
make their own food
• Heterotrophs – organisms that eat
other organisms
Number of Cells
• Unicellular – one celled
• Multicellular – more than one cell
Ability or Move
• Can freely move
• Sessile: Fixed to their
environment and can not move
freely
THE SIX KINGDOMS ARE:
Animalia
Plantae
Fungi
Protista
Eubacteria and
Archaebacteria
The following are
descriptions of the 6
kingdoms
KINGDOM ANIMALIA (animals)
*Eukaryotic (have nuclei)
*Multicellular
*Heterotrophic
*Moves
*examples - sponge, jellyfish,
insect, fish, frog, bird, man
KINGDOM PLANTAE (plants)
*multicellular
*Eukaryotic (have nuclei)
*Sessile (do not move)
*Autotrophic
*examples - multicellular algae,
mosses, ferns, flowering plants
(dandelions, roses, etc.), trees,
etc
KINGDOM FUNGI
*Multicellular
*Eukaryotoc (have nuclei_
*Mostly Sessile (mainly do not move from
place to place)
*Heterotrophic (food is digested outside of
fungus)
*examples - mushroom, mold, puffball,
shelf/bracket fungus, yeast, etc.
KINGDOM PROTISTA (protists)
*Unicellular
*Eukaryote (have a true nucleus)
*Some Move (cilia, flagella, pseudopodia);
others are sessile
*Some are autotrophic;
*Others are heterotrophic
*examples - amoeba, diatom, euglena,
paramecium, some algae (unicellular), etc
KINGDOM Eubacteria
*1 cell
*Prokaryote (genetic material scattered
and not enclosed by a membrane)
*some move (flagellum); others sessile
*some autotrophic; others heterotrophic
*examples - bacteria, “germs”—these are
the bacteria that make you sick, bluegreen algae.
KINGDOM Archaebacteria
*1 cell
*no true nucleus - prokaryote (genetic
material scattered and not enclosed by a
membrane)
*some move (flagellum); others are sessile
*some autotrophic; others heterotrophic
*examples – bacteria found in extreme
conditions such as hydrothermal vents and
hot springs
