Species - What is an archaebacteria?
-
unicellular, Prokaryotic, chemotroph/autotroph/heterotroph, asexual and sexual
The first known bacteria, not very complex - What is a Eubacteria?
-
Prokaryotic, unicellular, heterotroph/autotroph, asexual/sexual
The junk drawer, anything that does not quite belong in the other kingdoms goes in this kingdom - What is Fungi
-
colonial (accept for 2-- yeast is unicellular & mushrooms are multicellular), eukaryotic, heterotroph, asexual/sexual
these are funguses, much more complex than last three (has a nucleus and more organelles) - What is plantae?
- multicellular, autotroph, eukaryotic, Asexual(for indavidual repairs)/sexual(for continuation of species)
- What is anamalia?
-
multicellular, eukaryotic, heterotroph, asexual (for repairs to self)/sexual (for continuation of species)
most advanced kingdom - what does unicellular mean?
- the entire species is only made up of one cell
- what does colonial mean?
- a group of cells live together to make one species, but when cut up make several little species (does not need the other cells to survive)
- what does multicellular mean?
- a group of cells work together and if cut apart will die.
- what does prokaryotic mean?
- the organism has no nucleus and no membrane bound organelles
- what does eukaryotic mean?
- an organism containing one or more cells with a visible nucleus and organelles
- what does chemotroph mean?
- an organism that is able to get its energy from inorganic material
- what does autotroph mean?
- an organism that is able to make its own food
- what does heterotroph mean?
- an organism that relies on other organisms for food
- what does asexual mean?
- being able to reproduce without another organism
- what does sexual reproduction mean?
