Presentation Transcript

  1. My Kingdom for a Eukaryote!

  2. Vocabulary MULTICELLULAR UNICELLULAR Simple organisms made of just one cell – total. Complex organisms w/many cells

  3. Vocabulary • Prokaryotic – describes an organism with cells that have a cell membrane but do NOT have a nucleus • Eukaryotic – describes an organism with cells that have a cell membrane and a nucleus

  4. Vocabulary • Autotrophic – makes its own food • Heterotrophic – gets nutrients from the food it consumes

  5. List of the Three Domains and the Six Kingdoms 1.Domain Bacteria • Kingdom Eubacteria 2. Domain Archaea • Kingdom Archaebacteria 3. Domain Eukarya • Kingdom Protista • Kingdom Fungi • Kingdom Plantae • Kingdom Animalia

  6. Kingdom Eubacteria • Bacteria can live in many places on earth, inhabiting a wide variety of habitats, including other organisms • Unicellular (DNA in cytoplasm) • Prokaryotic • Autotrophic or heterotrophic • Asexual Reproduction

  7. Kingdom Eubacteria • Bacteria come in different shapes, such as round, spiral and rod-shaped.

  8. Kingdom Eubacteria • Bacteria can cause a wide variety of diseases, such as strep throat, food poisoning and the Black Death (bubonic plague of the Middle Ages)

  9. Kingdom Eubacteria • Bacteria also play an important role in decomposition, nitrogen fixation and human digestion (Lactobacillus acidophilus) Soybean root containing billions of bacteria

  10. Kingdom Eubacteria • Procholorococcus – an autotrophic bacterium – What does that mean about how it gets its nutrients?

  11. Kingdom Eubacteria • Bacteria stained with orange dye for detail.  The stain makes DNA appear yellow and RNA appear orange.

  12. Kingdom Archaebacteria • Bacteria that live in extreme habitats, such as hot springs, geysers, volcanic hot pools, brine pools, black smokers • Unicellular • Prokaryotic • Autotrophic or heterotrophic • Asexual reproduction

  13. Kingdom Archaebacteria Morning Glory Pool in Yellowstone National Park – note the bright colors from the archaebacteria growing in the extremely hot water (69.8 °C 157.6 °F)

  14. Kingdom Archaebacteria • Some like it hot! Bacillus infernus

  15. Kingdom Archaebacteria • Archaebacteria can live deep in the ocean near geothermal vents called black smokers • There is no light, so they carry out chemosynthesis instead of photosynthesis

  16. Kingdom Protista • Extremely diverse group • Eukaryotic • Most unicellular, some colonial, some multicellular • Autotrophic and heterotrophic and some mixotrophic • Asexual and sexual reproduction

  17. Kingdom Protista Euglena - mixotrophic Volvox – a colonial protist A slime mold - heterotrophic Amoeba - heterotrophic

  18. Kingdom Fungi • Eukaryotic • Most are multicellular, someunicellular • Heterotrophic (decomposers) • Sexual reproduction

  19. Kingdom Fungi Stilton cheese Bread mold

  20. Kingdom Plantae • Eukaryotic • Multicellular • Autotrophic • Some reproduce sexually, others asexually

  21. Kingdom Plantae

  22. Kingdom Animalia • Eukaryotic • Multicellular • Heterotrophic • Primarily sexual reproduction, but some asexual Human cheek cells Hydra

  23. Kingdom Animalia Octopus Flatworm Sponge Coral snake Jellyfish Bear
