This text aims to describe the characteristics of each of the six kingdoms of life: Archaea, Eubacteria, Protists, Fungi, Plants, and Animals. It also explores the levels of classification and how the number and similarity of organisms change as we move down the levels. The text highlights examples and interesting facts about each kingdom.

Topic: Classification Aim: Describe characteristics of each of the six kingdoms. Do Now: • Take out your Kingdoms Recall Notes • Take out the Bacteria ISA. • Identify the TAXON that contains organisms that are VERY SIMILAR. How similar are they??? HW: Kingdoms Review Entry Card Castle Learning Microscope Review – Due Tuesday, January 5th.
Describe what occurs to the number of organisms in each level as you move down the levels.
Describe what occurs to the similarity between organisms in each level as you move down the levels.
Before Linnaeus developed his naming system, plants and animals were named by a series of Latin words that described the physical appearance of the organism. This was very confusing. For example, let’s look at the first name of the honey bee. Apis pubescens, thorace subgriseo, abdomine fusco, pedibus posticis glabris utrinque margine ciliatus. This means “fuzzy bee, light gray middle, brown body, smooth hind legs that have a small bag edged with tiny hairs.” Linnaeus named it Apis mellifera which means “honey-bearing bee.”
Is their a taxon that is LARGER than a KINGDOM????
Domain Eukaryota include protists and the cells that make up fungi, plants, animals. Domain Bacteria is familiar to most people when associated with human or animal disease. However, there are many bacterial species do not (and cannot) cause disease. Many species even play beneficial roles by producing antibiotics and food. The soil teems with free-living bacteria that perform many essential functions in the biosphere, e.g. nitrogen fixation. Domain Archaea wasn't recognized as a major domain of life until quite recently. Scientists were studying different prokaryotes and found that there were 2 different groups: those that lived at high temperatures or produced methane clustered together as a group. Because of their difference in genetic makeup, scientists proposed that life be divided into 3 domains.
Archea • Unicellular • Prokaryotic • Autotrophic or heterotrophic
Found in extreme environments • oxygen-free • hot acidic waters of sulfur springs • bodies of concentrated salt water Hydrothermal vents Hot Springs
The hot springs of Yellowstone National Park, USA, were among the first places Archaebacteria were discovered.
Eubacteria • Unicellular • Prokaryotic • Autotrophic or heterotrophic
Yogurt contains lactobacteria, intestine-friendly bacterial cultures that foster a healthy colon, and even lower the risk of colon cancer. Lactobacteria, especially acidophilus, promotes the growth of healthy bacteria in the colon. The more of these intestine-friendly bacteria that are present in your colon, the lower the chance of colon diseases. Basically, the friendly bacteria in yogurt seems to deactivate harmful substances before they can become carcinogenic.
Found everywhere • most are helpful (produce vitamins) • some cause disease (Ex: Strep throat) Streptococci pyogenes Salmonella enteriditis
Salmonella poisoning Strep throat
Fun Fact: There are more bacteria in one person's mouth than there are people in the world.
Protists • Unicellular • Eukaryotic
Animal-like heterotrophic • Protozoa Ex: Amoeba, paramecium
Plant-like autotrophic • Algae
Fungi • Multicellular • Unicellular yeast
Eukaryotic cells • Heterotrophic • Decomposers absorb nutrients of dead organisms
Plants • Multicellular • Eukaryotic cells • Autotrophic • Ex: Trees, grasses…
Animals • Multicellular • Eukaryotic cells • Heterotrophic • Examples: Humans, jellyfish, insects, dogs, fish…
Archaea, Eubacteria, Protists, Fungi, Plants, Animals Let’s summarize… • Identify the six kingdoms. • Identify the kingdom described: • Unicellular and eukaryotic • Multicellular and autotrophic • Unicellular, prokaryotic and live in extreme environments • Multicellular and heterotrophic • Unicellular, prokaryotic, and are very common Protists Plants Archaea Fungi and Animals Eubacteria
