  1. 6 Kingdoms of Life SOL BIO: 5 a-f

  2. The grouping of organisms into KINGDOMS is based on 3 factors: • 1. Cell Type (prokyotic or eukaryotic) • 2. Cell Number (unicellular or multicellular) • 3. Feeding Type (autotroph or heterotroph)

  3. 6 Kingdoms Prokaryotes • Archaebacteria • Eubacteria • Protista • Fungi • Plantae • Animalia Eukaryotes

  4. Archaebacteria • Ancient bacteria- • Live in very harsh environments • extremophiles

  5. Eubacteria • It is the eubacteria that most people are talking about when they say bacteria, because they live in more neutral conditions.

  6. Bacteria • Bacteria are unicellular prokaryotes

  7. Protists • Protists include many widely ranging microbes, including slime molds, protozoa and primitive algae. Odds & Ends Kingdom

  8. Protista Kingdom • There are animal-like, fungus-like, and plant-like protists • Some are beneficial • Some protists can cause diseases in humans, such as:

  9. Fungi Kingdom • The Kingdom Fungi includes some of the most important organisms. • By breaking down dead organic material, they continue the cycle of nutrients through ecosystems.

  10. Fungi Unicellular (yeast) Multicellular • All fungi are eukaryotic • They may be unicellular or multicellular • All fungi have a cell wall

  11. Plant Kingdom • All plants are multicellular, their cells having a cell wall, and… • they are autotrophs

  12. All animals are: • Multicellular: cells lacking a cell wall -Heterotrophs • Capable of movement at some point in their lives. Animalia Kingdom
