Type of cell: Prokaryotes

Number of Cells: Unicellular

Structures: Have cell walls

Food/Energy: Can be autotroph, chemotroph, or heterotroph:

Chemotroph - makes food from chemicals instead of sun Reproduction:

Mostly asexual reproduction Movement:

Passive; no locomotion Habitat:

Live in extreme environments Ex: Can live without oxygen

Archaebacteria Members Examples:

Methanogens Produce fuel (ex:

methane gas) Halophiles – “salt –

lovers” Thermophiles –

“heat-lovers”

Type of cell: Prokaryote

Number of cells: Unicellular

Structures: Cell wall

Food/Energy: Heterotrophs, Chemotrophs,

and Autotrophs Reproduction:

Mostly asexual reproduction Binary fission

Reproduces very quickly Movement:

Flagella Habitat:

They can be found everywhere

The more common bacteria

Three main shapes: Round, Rod, Spiral

Can be: Harmful

Many cause illness Ex: TB, strep, tetanus, food poisoning

Helpful Decomposers (recycling) Used in making food Produce fuel Environmental cleanup

E. coli

Lactobacillus(used in yogurt)

Streptococcus

The miscellaneous “junk drawer” kingdom

Type of cell: Eukaryote

Number of cells: Mostly unicellular; a few

multicellular Structures:

Cell wall and/or chloroplasts in some groups

Food/Energy; Autotrophs & Heterotrophs

Reproduction: Mostly asexual reproduction

(binary fission) Locomotion:

Flagella, pseudopod, cilia Habitat:

Live in moist environments

Plant-like: Autrotrophs

Ex: Euglena, diatoms, & algae Animal-like:

Heterotrophs Ex: Amoeba, Paramecium

Fungus-like: Decomposers Ex: Slime mold, downy mold

Type of Cell: Eukaryote

Number of Cells: Mostly Multicellular; One

unicellular Structures:

Cell wall, hyphae, fruiting bodies Food/Energy:

Heterotrophs & Decomposers Reproduction:

Mostly sexual reproduction (spores)

Some asexual (budding) Locomotion:

None Habitat:

Moist, warm environments Not direct sunlight

Mushrooms, Molds Yeast (unicellular) Sac Fungi

Cell Type: Eukaryote

Number of Cells: Multicellular

Cell Structures: Cell wall, chloroplasts, large

vacuole Food/Energy:

Autotrophs Reproduction:

Mostly sexual reproduction Locomotion:

None

300,000 have been found…including trees, flowers, grasses, mosses etc.

Mosses Ferns Flowering Plants Grasses Conifers

Type of cell: Eukaryote

Number of cells: Multicellular

Structures: No cell walls Invertebrate & Vertebrate

Food/Energy: Heterotroph Reproduction:

Mostly sexual Some asexual

Movement: Walk, swim, fly, crawls, etc.

Habitat: Everywhere

Over a million identified species. 97 percent have no backbone 3% are vertebrates..Mammals ,birds,

reptiles, amphibians, fish

Cnidarians

Sponge and coral Worms

Mollusks

Arthropods
