What are the three domains?
Archaea Bacteria Eukarya
What are the typical characteristics found in Archaea?
No nucleus, no membrane organelles, no ribosomes, they're prokaryotes (ex: methanoges, thermophiles, halophiles) and single celled
What are the typical characteristics found in Bacteria?
No nucleus, no membrane organelles, have ribosomes, are prokaryotes (ex: monera, cyanobacteria) are single celled or colonies
What are the typical characteristics found in Eurkarya?
Have a nucleus, membrane organelles, ribosomes, are eukaryotes (ex:protists [single/colonies], fungi & plants & animals [multicell]
What are the 5 kingdoms?
Monera (bacteria) Protists (algae, protozoa, slime molds) fungi (molds, mushrooms, yeast) Plants Animals
What kingdom is under prokaryotes? (has prokaryotes within the kingdom)
Monera a.k.a Bacteria
What are Monera?
unicellular, auto/heterotrophs, and have cell walls
What kingdoms fall under eukaryotes?
Protists, fungi, plant and animal
What are protists?
most are unicellular, some are mulitcellular; some are colonial; hetera/autptrophs; some motile
What are fungi?
most are multicellular, yeast unicellular; no moving cells; heterotrophs, digest food outside of the cells, then absorb it through the cell membrane
What are plants?
multicellular, autotroph, non-motile; cell walls
what are animals?
multicellular, heterotroph, most move; no cell walls
what does autotroph mean?
makes its own food (photosynthesizes)
what does heterotroph mean?
does NOT make its own food
what does non-motile mean?>
does NOT move on its own
what does organelles mean?
little "organs"/parts inside cell
what does unicellular mean?
only made of ONE cell
what does mulitcellular mean?
made of MANY cells
what does cell wall mean?
extra membrane layer (of cellulose) outside of the cell membrane
