[Characteristics of the 6
Kingdoms]
Organisms are classified into
kingdoms based on cell structure,
ability to make food, and number of
cells.
6
There are _______ kingdoms of organisms.
They are…
Mushrooms, yeast
Fungi
•
•
•
•
•
•
Eukaryote
Cell walls made of chitin
Most are multicellular (yeast is unicellular)
Heterotroph
No movement
Asexual or sexual reproduction
Sponges, coral
Animalia
•
•
•
•
•
•
Eukaryote
No cell walls
Multicellular
Heterotroph
Moves
Sexual reproduction
Escherichia coli
Eubacteria
• Prokaryote
•
•
•
•
•
Cell walls with peptidoglycan
Unicellular
Autotroph or Heterotroph
Can move with flagella
Asexual reproduction
Plantae
• Eukaryote
• Cell walls made of cellulose, contains
chlorophasts
• Multicellular
• Autotroph
• No movement
• Sexual reproduction
Some found in extreme environments,
like acidic drainage and hot springs:
Archaebacteria
• Prokaryote
• Cell walls without peptidoglycan
•
•
•
•
Unicellular
Autotroph or Heterotroph
Can move with flagella
Asexual reproduction
Protista
• Eukaryote
• Cell walls with cellulose; Some have
chloroplast
• Most are unicellular
• Autotroph or Heterotroph
• Can move with flagella or cilia
• Asexual or sexual reproduction
This cell is …
a. prokaryotic
b. eukaryotic
Place your kingdom cards into two
groups
• Eubacteria
• Archaebacteria
•
•
•
•
Protista
Fungi
Plantae
Animalia
The leaves on the tree
are green because they
contain chloroplasts
that enable them to
photosynthesize.
Therefore the tree is
a(n) a.Heterotroph
b.Autotroph
Now, place your kingdom cards
into two groups
•
•
•
•
Eubacteria
Archaebacteria
Protista
Plantae
•
•
•
•
•
Eubacteria
Archeabacteria
Fungi
Animalia
Protista
This organism is said to be unicellular.
Now, place your kingdom cards
into two groups
•
•
•
•
Protista (some)
Plantae
Anamalia
Fungi
•
•
•
•
Eubacteria
Archaebacteria
Protista
Fungi (yeast only)
The cell shown here
is a plant cell.
How do we know?
One way is by the presence of the
cell wall.
Which of your cards fit into these
two categories?
•
•
•
•
•
Eubacteria
Archeabacteria
Protista (some)
Fungi
Plantae
• Animalia
• Protist
Homework Q. 1
What is the main difference
between the Eubacteria and the
Archaebacteria?
Archaebacteria does not have
peptidoglycan and can live in extreme
enviroments
Homework Q. 2
If you know an organism has a cell
wall and is a multicellular
autotroph, can you determine the
kingdom to which it belongs?
Homework Q. 3
If you know an organism is
unicellular, has a nucleus and can
make its own food, can you
determine the kingdom to which it
belongs?
Now, Let’s see how much you
learned!
Put your worksheet somewhere
that you cannot see it.
Open envelope 2!
In your envelope are cards that have
pictures, diagrams or characteristics
of organisms.
Line up your kingdom cards on the left (similar to below)
and then sort your other cards into the correct
kingdoms.
Archaebacteria
Plantae
Animalia
Protista
Eubacteria
Fungi
Assessment
• From the information on the following
slides, determine the kingdom that is
represented.
1. Multicellular eukaryotes that
are usually mobile and obtain
food from other organisms.
2. A researcher examined
prepared slides of pond water.
Single-celled organisms with a
nucleus and either cilia or
flagella were visible.

Some Characteristics of
Diospyros texana
• Multicellular
• Eukaryotic
• Makes its own food
