4. What does the prefix “uni” means? What does the prefix “multi” means. Understanding the
meaning of both prefixes, what does the term unicellular and multicellular mean?
5. Summarize all your knowledge on the following table. Name the three domains, determine the
type of cell and if these organisms are multi or unicellular. How can you tell them apart?
Name of domain
Type of cell
Multicellular or Unicellular
The Domain Eukarya.
The domain Eukarya contains four kingdoms. Using terms that you have learned before,
unicellular and multicellular and autotroph and heterotroph, classify and give examples of each
of the kingdoms.

Uses of the major groups of plants
Name the major groups of plants and then name two (specific) human uses in the American culture
and in a culture other than your own
