TEKS 6.12C recognize the broadest taxonomic classification of living organisms is divided into currently recognized Domains
TEKS 6.12D identify the basic characteristics of organisms, including prokaryotic or eukaryotic, unicellular or multi-cellular,
autotrophic or heterotrophic, and mode of reproduction, that further classify them in the currently recognized Kingdoms
Characteristics of Living Organisms Notes
Domain Archaea
Kingdom Archaebacteria






Prokaryotic – lack a nucleus
Unicellular – single celled
Some autotrophic, some
heterotrophic
Reproduce asexually
Some live in extreme environments
◦ High salinity (salt content)
◦ Low oxygen concentrations
◦ High temperatures
◦
High or low pH
◦ Guts of grazing herbivoresproduce methane
Many live in oceans
Domain Eukarya
Kingdom Protista





Eukaryotic – have a nucleus
Most unicellular, some multi-cellular
Some autotrophic, some heterotrophic
Reproduction can be asexual or sexual
Examples: amoeba, paramecium, algae,
diatoms, and many more
Domain Eukarya
Kingdom Plantae






Eukaryotic – have a nucleus
Multi-cellular
Almost all are autotrophic
Reproduce sexually and asexually
Most need sunlight, water, minerals and
carbon dioxide to survive
Examples: trees, grasses, mosses, ferns,
cactus, etc.
Domain Bacteria
Kingdom Eubacteria


Prokaryotic – lack a nucleus
Unicellular – single celled
Some autotrophic, some heterotrophic
Reproduce asexually
Used in food production, oil spill cleanup,
and sewage treatment plants
Decomposers – break down dead
organisms
Some cause disease – strep throat, food
poisoning, etc.
Domain Eukarya
Kingdom Fungi

Eukaryotic – have a nucleus
Some unicellular, most multi-cellular
Heterotrophic
Reproduction can be asexual or sexual
Many are decomposers
Examples: mold, mushrooms, yeast
Domain Eukarya
Kingdom Animalia





Eukaryotic – have a nucleus
Multi-cellular
Heterotrophic
Most reproduce sexually but some
asexually
Examples: lizards, grasshoppers,
spiders, dogs, humans, worms, clams,
fish, etc.
