MoneraKingdom Bacteria: Prokaryoticorganisms
Characteristics: • Prokaryotic and unicellularorganisms. Bacteria sometimesgrow in colonies. • They are themostabundantorganismsonEarth and can survive in anytype of envronments. • Structure:Cellmembrane – cellwall – cytoplasm – DNA – flagellaorcillia. • Shapes: • Spherical: coccus (cocci) • Rod-shaped: bacillus (bacilli) • Curved: vibrio • Spiral: spirillum
Vital functions • Nutrition: • Bacteria can beautotrophsorheterotrophs. • Reproduction: • Binaryfission • Interaction: • Bacteria are abletodetectchanges and respondtothem.
Environment • Autotrophic bacteria live in aquaticecosystems • Heterotrophic bacteria are : • Saprophytes: Decomposers • Live in otherorganisms (producingeffectsornot) likegut flora (symbionts) or Salmonella (parasites) • Escherichiacoli
ProtistaKingdom • Eukaryoticcells. • Types: • PROTOZOA: • Amoebae • Vorticellae • Trypanosomes • ALGAE: • Green algae • Brown algae • Red algae
Characteristics Protozoa Algae Unicellular Heterotrophs Aquaticenvironments Differenttypes of movementfacilities: Pseudopods Flagella Cillia Types of life: free (amoeba), parasites (Trypanosomes), attached (Vorticella) Unicellularormulticellular (colonies) Autotrophs Aquatic Colors: Green algae: multi and unicellular. (Plancton) Brown: somegrow 50 m long Red: attachedtotheflooror animal shells

Fungi • Eukaryotic • Heterotrophic • Unicellular (Yeast) ormulticellular (Mushrooms) • No tissues • Cellshavecellularwall (differenttoplantcells)
Multicellularfungi • Somefungi are made up or fine threadscalledhyphae. Hyphae are packedtightlytogetherforming a mycellium.
Nutrition • Saprotrophs: theyfeedontheremains of deadorganisms. • Parasites: theyfeedon living organismscausingillnesses. • Symbionts: feedbyassociatingwithautotrophicorganismslivealgae in lychens.
Reproduction and interaction • Asexual reproduction. Fungi produce spores . • Theyusuallylive in thesoil in damp and dark places. Evenwhentheylive in otherorganisms.
