6 Kingdoms • Archaebacteria • Eubacteria • Protista (protists) • Fungi • Plantae (plants) • Animalia (animals)
Characteristic Unicellular uni = one Multi-cellular multi = many
Characteristic Prokaryote - no true nucleus Eukaryote eu = true - a true nucleus
Characteristic Heterotroph heter = different troph = nutrition/ food Feeds on other organisms Autotroph auto = self troph = nutrition/food Makes own food
archaebacteria • Unicellular • Prokaryote • Some heterotroph • Some autotroph
Eubacteriaeu = true • anthrax
Eubacteria • Unicellular • Prokaryote • Heterotroph & autotroph • Some helpful/some harmful
Protista (Protists) • Mostly unicellular • Eukaryote • Heterotroph & autotroph • “odds and ends” kingdom • NOT bacteria, animal, plant, or fungi • Algae
Fungi • Multi-cellular • Eukaryote • Heterotroph • (food - decaying plants) • Mushrooms
Plantae • Multi-cellular • Eukaryote • Autotroph • 250,000 species
Animalia • Multi-cellular • Eukaryote • Heterotroph • 1 million species
