KINGDOMS (There are 6 of them) bacteria

Monerans also known as eubacteria n  Single celled n  Microscopic n  Have cell wall (peptidoglycan) n  Can make their own food (autotroph) n  & can’t (heterotroph) n  No Nucleus (prokaryote)

Archaebacteria n  Single cell n  Prokaryotes n  Live in extreme conditions (salt, ice, sulfur

hot pots) n  Cell wall (different lipid structure than

eubacteria)

Protist n  Single & multicelluar. n  Microscopic n  Both fungus, plant &animal characteristic n  Have cell membrane, some have a cell wall n  Autotrophic (chlorophyll) & Heterotrophic n  eukaryotic

Fungi n  Multicelled n  Have cell membrane & cell wall (chitin) n  Heterotroph (saprophytic) n  Digest surrounding material

then absorb the nutrients n  eukaryote

Plants n  Autotroph (chlorophyll) n  Multicellular n  Have cell wall (cellulose) n  Eukaryote n  Respond to stimuli

Animals n  heterotrophs n  Multicellular eukaryote n  Have cell (plasma) membrane

(phospholipid bi-layer) n  Must be able to move sometime during life

span

Virus – where do they fit? n  Non-living n  Protein coat (capsule) protect genetic

material either (DNA or RNA)

So how many kinds of living things are there? n  Biodiversity
