CH 18 CLASSIFICATION
18.3 Building the Tree of Life
Six-Kingdom System of Classification






Eubacteria
Archaebacteria
Protista
Fungi
Plantae
Animalia.


Number of kingdoms has changed and varies
depending on source
Started off as plant or animal.


Five kingdoms was very common
Broke bacteria up into two kingdoms.
Domain


Larger, more inclusive category than a kingdom
Three Domains
 Bacteria
(Eubacteria)
 Archaea (Archaebacteria)
 Eukarya (all eukaryotes.
The Tree of All Life

Shows current hypotheses regarding evolutionary
relationships among the taxa.
Domain Bacteria



Eubacteria
Thick, rigid walls containing peptidogylcan
Very, very diverse.
Domain Archaea




Archaebacteria
Live in some extreme environments
Lack peptidoglycan
Cell membranes contain unusual lipids that are not
found in any other organism.
Domain Eukarya


Have nucleus
Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.
Protista





The remaining eukaryotes
Unicellular or multicellular
Microscopic or much larger (10 m)
Producer, consumer, or decomposer
Algae, protozoa, slime molds.
Fungi





Develop directly from spores
Many are decomposers
Multicellular with chitin cell wall
yeast)
Either sexual or asexual reproduction
Mainly haploid.
(except
Plantae





Develop from embryo that lacks blastula
Cell wall of cellulose
Chloroplast
Stores starch
Mostly sexual reproduction.
Animalia






Develop from embryo WITH blastula stage
Heterotrophic
Multicellular
Microscopic to huge
Many have nervous system
Mostly sexual reproduction.
