Bench Mark SC.912.L.15.6 Emily Capote Kingdoms Highest category in the traditional Linnaean system of classification. At this level, organisms are distinguished on the basis of cellular organization and methods of nutrition. Whether they are multiple or single celled, whether they ingest, absorb, or produce food are critical factors. 5 Types of Kingdoms: 1. Monera 2. Protista 3. Fungi 4. Plantae 5. Animalia Classifying Organisms, some organisms are listed below Monera: Bacteria, Blue-Green Algae (cyanobacteria), and spirochetes. Protista: protozoans and algae of various types. Fungi: funguses, molds, mushrooms, yeast, mildews, and smuts. Plantae: mosses, ferns, woody and non woody plants. Animalia: sponges, worms, insects, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals Picture descriptions Monera Protista Fungi Continuation. Plantae Animalia Domains. The highest taxonomic rank (higher than kingdoms) of organisms in which there are 3 groupings. Archaea Bacteria Eukarya Classification of Organisms Archaea: single-celled microorganisms. These microbes have no cell nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelles within their cell. Bacteria: contains most know pathogenic prokaryotic organisms Eukarya: includes all of the organisms with eukaryotic cells. How are organisms classified into kingdoms and domains? Simply based on physical appearance and the ability to reproduce with members of the same "group"/species How are organisms classified based on evolutionary relationships? The science of classifying organisms based on their evolutionary relationships is referred to as cladistics. Phylogeny is the branch of biology that deals with phylogenesis. The proposed relationships between different types of organisms are displayed in diagrams called phylogenetic trees.
