Kingdoms of Living Things
Bacteria
•
•
•
•
Prokaryotes
Unicellular
Autotrophic or heterotrophic
2 Domains of bacteria
*Domain Archaea
• Kingdom Archaebacteria—live in
harsh places, such as geysers,
glaciers, undersea volcanoes
*Domain Bacteria
• Kingdom Eubacteria—live almost
everywhere else (ubiquitous)
-Can be symbiotic—live in/with
another organism
-Most are very helpful!
Some are pathogenic—cause disease.
Strep bacteria
Staph bacteria
3 Common bacterial shapes:
Spherical—called coccus
Rod-shaped—called bacillus
Spiral-shaped—called spirillum
Spherical Bacteria
Rod-shaped Bacteria
Spiral Bacteria
Bacterial Reproduction
• Binary fission—
asexual method
similar to
mitosis
• Conjugation—
“sexual”
method;
swapping of
DNA through a
sex pilus
Domain Eukarya
All eukaryotes
Kingdom Protista/Protists
• Eukaryotes
• Autotrophic or
heterotrophic
• Mostly
unicellular
• Live in aquatic or
moist places
• Can be animallike, plant-like,
or fungus-like
Paramecium
Euglena
Amoeba
Most protists are free-living, but
some are parasites, causing such
diseases as malaria and Giardia.
Protist Reproduction
• Binary or Multiple Fission—asexual
• Fragmentation—asexual—part of an
individual breaks off and becomes a
new individual
• Budding—asexual—a growth falls
off and becomes a new individual
• Sexual methods: conjugation, sex
cell formation
Kingdom Fungi
•
•
•
•
Eukaryotes
Heterotrophic
Mostly multicellular
Live in moist, dark places
Fungi:
• Decompose food by extracellular
digestion—digest food around
them, then absorb it
• Decomposers are also called
saprophytes or saprobes.
• Fungi have cell walls made of
chitin.
• Fungi examples include:
yeast
(budding)
mushrooms
morels
bracket fungi
puffballs
A few fungi can be parasitic, such
as the one that causes ringworm.
Fungi Reproduction
• Budding—in yeast—asexual
• Fragmentation—asexual
• Spores—asexual
• Sexual—two types of hyphae (+
and – ) fuse

INSTEAD of the following slides!!
Plants
•
•
•
•
•
Eukaryotes
Autotrophic
Multicellular
Stationary
Have organs and systems
2 Main groups of plants:
1. Nonvascular—no transport
system
2. Vascular—have transport
systems
Plant examples:
moss
ferns
trees (spruce)
flowering plants
Animals
•
•
•
•
•
Eukaryotes
Heterotrophic
Multicellular
Can move on their own
Have complex organs and systems
2 Main Groups of Animals:
1. Invertebrates—no backbone
There are many invertebrate phyla.
2. Vertebrates—have a backbone
Vertebrates are classified into
Phylum Chordata.
Animal examples:
earthworms
elephants
sponges
killer whales
