Midterm Review – Six Kingdoms KINGDOMS BROCHURE SHOULD INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION: Note: Be able to name the six kingdoms from memory and list characteristics of each Kingdom: Archaebacteria Unicellular Prokaryotic Autotrophic or heterotrophic Chemical make-up is different from Bacteria Kingdom Live in extreme or harsh environments – hot springs with boiling water, with no oxygen, ocean floor Kingdom: Eubacteria or Bacteria Unicellular Prokaryotic Autotrophic or heterotrophic Different chemical make-up than that of Archaea Live everywhere “True bacteria” – what you think of as bacteria Be able to list ways that bacteria are harmful and helpful Kingdom: Protist Eukaryotic Most are unicellular, some are multicellular (seaweed) Autotrophic or heterotrophic Live in moist surroundings “junk drawer” or “odds and ends” kingdom Examples: amoeba, paramecium, euglena Be familiar with the cell structure of these organisms, and the way in which they move and obtain food Kingdom: Fungi 1 Midterm Review – Six Kingdoms Eukaryotic Most are multicellular, yeast are unicellular Absorptive heterotrophs -- meaning that fungi are heterotrophic, and excrete chemicals that digest their food outside their bodies and then absorb the digested food. Have cell walls Reproduce with spores, yeast reproduce asexually by budding Play a major role as decomposers Examples: mold, mushrooms, mildew, fungi that grow on dead trees Kingdom: Plant Multicellular Eukaryotic Autotrophic Cannot move from place to place Have cell walls, chloroplasts and large water vacuoles Reproduce with seeds, some with spores Some are vascular, some are nonvascular Examples: moss, fern, flowering plants, conifers, oak and maple trees, pine trees etc. Kingdom: Animal Multicellular Eukaryotic Heterotrophic Most can move from place to place Largest kingdom with over 1 million known species Examples: sea sponge, jellyfish, insects, fish, frog, man 2
