  1. The Kingdoms of Life

  2. Review Can you answer the following questions?

  3. Polls Everywhere Code • Who was Carolus Linnaeus? • What is binomial nomenclature? • The genus name represents what? • The species name represents what? • What is Taxonomy? • How did Carolus Linnaeus classify organisms into larger groups?

  4. Origami Time =) • Fold all eight of your squares in half

  5. All organisms classified in a hierarchy • Kingdom (broadest) • Phylum • Class • Order • Family • Genus • Species (most specific)

  6. Origami Time =) • Take your hotdog folded papers in fold the top corners of each square (like making a house)

  7. Cladogram Review

  8. J

  9. C

  10. Origami Time =) • Listen carefully as Mrs. Barney explains the fold into the parallelogram

  11. The 6 kingdoms • Prokaryotes • Archaebacteria • Eubacteria • Eukaryotes • Fungi • Protista • Animal • Plantae

  12. Origami Time =) • Now that you have your perpendicular shapes, place two of them in your hands facing the same direction with the opening pointing downwards • Place the point of the paper in your right hand into the opening of the paper in your left hand • Fold the points of the left hand shape into the right hand shape to lock in place • Do this for all 8 shapes

  13. Overview of the 6 kingdoms • Eubacteria • Unicellular • Prokaryotic • Cell walls with peptidoglycan • Autotroph or Heterotroph • Archaebacteria • Unicellular • Prokaryotic • Cell walls without peptidoglycan • Autotroph or Heterotroph • Live in extreme environments

  14. Overview of the 6 kingdoms • Protista • Eukaryotic • Unicellular or multicellular • Cell walls of cellulose • Heterotroph or Autotroph • Fungi • Cell walls made of chitin • Eukaryotic • Most Multicellular/ some unicellular • Heterotrophs

  15. Overview of the 6 kingdoms • Animalia • Eukaryotic • Multicellular • No cell walls/no chloroplasts • Heterotrophs • Most motile/ some sessile • Plantae • Eukaryotic • Most Multicellular/some unicellular • Cell walls made of cellulose • Autotroph

  16. Show Me what you GOT!

  17. Characteristics go here Kingdoms go here

  18. The diagram shows taxonomic groups and a major distinguishing characteristic of all but two of them.
