An introduction to the six kingdoms of living things

Some words to know…

• Unicellular: made of one cell

• Multicellular: made of two or more cells

• Autotroph: able to produce its own food

• Heterotroph: obtains nutrients from its environment or other organisms

What do you think this is?

Domain Bacteria

BELLWORK: FILL IN THE FIRST PARAGRAPH ON THE BACK OF THE FIRST PAGE OF

NOTES FROM YESTERDAY.KINGDOM EUBACTERIA

Organisms in the Eubacteria kingdom are unicellular prokaryotes. Prokaryotes do not have a membrane bound nucleus or membrane bound organelles. Eubacteria are found in all habitats. The cell walls of Eubacteria contain the chemical peptidoglycan. Some eubacteria remain independent as single cells and other group into colonies. Eubacteria reproduce asexually through cell division.

Some eubacteria are autotrophic, making their own food, and others are heterotrophic, taking in nutrients from their environment.

Eubacteria can cause various diseases, from strep throat to Rocky Mountain spotted fever, but they can also be very helpful. Lactobacillus is used to help make foods like cheese and yogurt, and is also present in the human digestive system. Decomposing organic matter and cycling nitrogen are also important functions of eubacteria.

Domain Archaea

Kingdom Archaebacteria

Kingdom ArchaebacteriaOrganisms in the Archaebacteria kingdom are

unicellular prokaryotes. They have no membrane bound nucleus or organelles in their single celled bodies. Archaebacteria are similar in size and shape to eubacteria.

The cell walls of archaebacteria are different from both eubacteria and eukaryotes because they do not contain the chemical peptidoglycan.

Like eubacteria, archaebacteria reproduce asexually through cell division. They can also be autotrophic, making their own food, or heterotrophic, obtaining food from their environment, just like eubacteria.

Some archaebacteria are extremeophiles, living in extreme environments such as in hot springs, extremely acidic environments, polar seas, and even in extremely salty water.

Tonight’s Homework:“Protists” by Bozeman Science

Complete the worksheet you picked up on the way in. You WILL have another homework quiz tomorrow in class.

Today’s WHAT: I will analyze the characteristics of fungi. I will categorize organisms.

Today’s HOW: I will read a paragraph and fill in my Kingdom chart. I will dissect a mushroom and answer lab questions.

Domain Eukaryota

Kingdom fungi

BELLWORK: FILL IN THE PARAGRAPH FROM THE NOTES FROM YESTERDAY.

Kingdom FungiFungi are a large group of eukaryotic organisms that

includes such organisms as yeasts, molds, and mushrooms. Many fungi are multicellular, but some are unicellular, such as yeast.

Some differences between fungi and other eukaryotes are at the cellular level. Fungal cells have cell walls that contain chitin, unlike plant cell walls which contain cellulose. Another difference between plant cells and fungal cells is that fungal cells lack chloroplasts, so most fungi are heterotrophs. They take in nutrients by absorbing them from their environment.

Fungi reproduction is complex. Many fungi reproduce both asexually and sexually at different stages in their life cycles. Fungal reproduction often involves the production and dispersal of spores.

Fungi can be both harmful and helpful. Some fungi grow in or on plants or animals causing disease, such as Dutch Elm Disease or Ringworm. Other fungi, such as the mold that the antibiotic penicillin is made from, can help organisms by killing bacteria.

Domain Eukaryota

KINGDOM PROTISTA

Kingdom ProtistaProtists are a diverse group of eukaryotic

microorganisms. They do not have much in common except that they are relatively simple eukaryotes. They are either unicellular or multicellular without reaching the specialized tissue level of organization.

Protists include organisms such as algae, amoebae, protozoans, euglena, and slime molds. Protists live in almost any environment that contains liquid water. Some protists, such as algae, are photosynthetic, so they are autotrophs. Other protists are heterotrophs, obtaining nutrients from their environment. Amoebae engulf, or take into their membrane, other cells. This process is called phagocytosis.

Most protists reproduce asexually, through a form of cell division. Other protists engage in a form of sexual reproduction.

Some protists are responsible for diseases such as malaria in humans and potato blight in potato plants. Research scientists are experimenting with ways to use protists to wipe out fire ants and other pests.

Your Task: To dissect your mushroom and examine the parts of

this type of fungus

You will need to complete the lab report. You are turning it in!

Remember our Lab CHAMPs.Be safe, respectful, and work hard!

HAPPY MONDAY!!! Bellwork: match the following to its correct Kingdom.(They are on the board and only write the answer.)

1. I’m a unicellular organism that does not contain a nucleus. I also love living in extreme environments.

2. I can be both heterotrophic and autotrophic AND I do contain a nucleus.

3. Examples of organisms in my kingdom are flowers, cactus, trees, and grass. NOT MUSHROOMS!

4. I’m a very small organism that has a cell wall made up of peptigoglycan.

5. I lack cholorplast, so I don’t have green leaves. But my cell wall is made up of chitin.

6. In my kingdom, there are many different types of fish.

CO: I will categorize organism into kingdoms based on

similarities.

LO: I will read about organisms and look at pictures. I will sort them into kingdoms and write

why I did.

Happy Tuesday!Tonight’s Homework:

“Six Kingdoms of Classification” by Mark Drollinger

You have 5 minutes to complete the “Kingdom Cut and Paste” from Yesterday. You WILL have

another homework quiz tomorrow in class.

Domain EukaryotaKingdom

Kingdom AnimaliaAnimals are a group of multicellular

eukaryotic organisms. The word animal comes from the Latin word animalis meaning “having breath.”

Animals are different from other eukaryotes in a number of ways. First, animal cells lack the rigid cell wall that plants, fungi, and algae have. Second, animals are heterotrophic, meaning that they must ingest other organisms in order to survive. Heterotrophs are the consumers in the food chain. Third, all animals are motile, or able to move, at least during one stage of their life cycle.

Nearly all animals undergo some form of sexual reproduction, where specialized sex cells form and fuse together to form zygotes, which develop into individuals. Some animals are also capable of asexual reproduction, through budding or forms of cloning.

Kingdom AnimaliaThe Kingdom Animalia is divided into approximately 40 Phyla including Phylum Chordata, which includes all the vertebrate animals, or animals with a backbone and spinal column. Humans, as well as fish, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and other mammals, belong to the Phylum Chordata. Other phyla include Phylum Arthropoda, to which crabs, spiders, and insects belong; and Phylum Nematoda, which are the roundworms.

Domain Eukaryota

KINGDOMPLANTAE

Kingdom PlantaeOrganisms from the Kingdom Plantae are multicellular eukaryotic organisms. Plants have characteristics that make them different from other eukaryotic organisms.

One of the main differences is that they are autotrophic, meaning they are able to make their own food using simple inorganic substances. They do this through a process known as photosynthesis, in which plants convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of a plant cell.

Plants are multicellular and, unlike animals, their cells have rigid cell walls made from cellulose.

Some species of plants reproduce sexually and some reproduce asexually. In asexual reproduction, such as budding, an exact copy of the parent is produced. Plant sexual reproduction can be assisted by animals, as is the case with flowers and honeybees. As the bees go from flower to flower collecting nectar, they carry pollen, plant sex cells, with them and pollinate other plants. Pollination is the first step in plant sexual reproduction.

Kingdom PlantaeThe Kingdom Plantae is divided into 11 Phyla. Phylum Coniferophyta are cone producing plants. Most of the Conifers are evergreens like pines and firs. Phylum Anthophyta are flowering, seed producing plants. They are a very diverse group and include organisms such as strawberry plants, palm trees, and water lilies. Phylum Bryophyta are mosses- small, soft plants that don’t have flowers or seeds. They absorb water and nutrients through their leaves. Plants are a very diverse group!
