Classification O Bacteria:

O Cyanobacteria:

BACTERIA

TYPES OF BACTERIA:O Coccus: spherical bacteriaO Bacillus: Rod shaped bacteriaO Vibrio: Curved bacteriaO Spirillum: Bacteria with a helical or

spiral shape

What type of bacteria is the letter ´ a `?

O The letter `a ´is a ________

The vital functions of bacteria:NUTRITION:O Most bacteria are heterotrophic, but some of them are

autotrophic.O They feed in different ways:

O Saprophytes:.these live on decomposing organic remains. And they become inorganics substances. In this way they enrich the soil

O Parasites: They feed on other living being, harming them and causing infectious illnesses.

O Symbionts: They live in close association with another living things and this produces a mutual benefit such as those which live in our intestine.

The vital function of bacteria:

REPRODUCTION:O Bacteria reproduce asexually through successive cell divisions.

INTERACTION:O Some of theses organisms do not move. Some swim by means

of flagella and other slide over surfaces.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHx078zOeiM

O They can live in all types of environments.

CYANOBACTERIA also known as blue-green algae that obtain their energy through photosynthesis. They are autotrophs.

PROTOCTIST KINGDOM

Characteristics:O They are unicellular and multicellular

organismsO They have eukaryotic cellO  They are very simple and they never

form tissues. 

Classification

PROTOCTIST

PROTOCTIST:

O PROTOZOA

O ALGAE

PROTOZOA

CharacteristicsO They are unicellular organismsO They are heterotrophs

The vital function of Protozoa:O NUTRITION:

O They are heterotrophs.O They feed in different ways:

O Hunters: they feed on micro-organismsO Parasites: They feed on other living things, harming them and causing

illnesses such as malaria.

O REPRODUCTION:They repoduce by dividing their cellular body into two daughter cells

O INTERACTION:Most move using differents mechanisms:

Using a flagella using pseudopods using cilia

Trypanosoma Amoeba Paramecium

3. Two daughter ameba are produced.

2. The ameba becomes thinner in its centre.

Ameba (mother)

1. The ameba grows and its components duplicates.

Daughter ameba

ALGAE

CharacteristicsO They are unicellular and they usually

form coloniesO They can be multicellular orgnisms

but they never form tissuesO They are autotroph. They perfom

photosynthesisO Most are aquatic from fresh water

and salt water.

Classification

O Brown algae

O Green algae

O Red algae

FUNGI

CharacteristicsO They are eukaryotic heterotrophic

organismsO Some are unicellular and other are

multicellular, but they never form tissues.

O Their cells have cellular wall, but they are different to plant cells

Some multicellular fungi are made up of fine threads called hyphae.When hyphae are packed together, they form the mycellium

Vital functionO NUTRITION:1. Saprophytes: Feed on remains of

dead organisms, like remains of plants of animals. musrhooms

2. Parasites: Feed on living things causing them illnesses. Candida

3. Symbionts. Feed by associating with autotrophic organisms provide them with food they need. lichen

ReproductionO Fungi reproduce by spores.

ReproductionO Fungi reproduce by spores.

InteractionO They usually live in the soil, in dark

and damp places.
