Assignment Instructions:
On the yellow paper provided, copy the chart below. Copy it exactly as you see it. On the back of the yellow paper, copy the remaining notes and copy the nine questions provided. You must write the entire question and provide the complete answer (not just the letter)
KINGDOMS / ORGANIZATION(type of cell; unicellular/multicellular / EXAMPLES OF ORGANISMS / TYPE OF ENVIRONMENT / NUTRITION
Archaebacteria / Prokaryotic
(unicellular) / Halophiles, methanogens, thermophiles / Live in extreme conditions (hot, acidic, salty, anaerobic—sewage treatment plants, thermal vents, etc) / Autotrophic (make own food using H2, S, or CO2)
Eubacteria / Prokaryotic – no nucleus
(unicellular) / E-coli, bacillus pneumoniae, salmonella / some cause human diseases; present in almost all habitats on earth / Some autotophic most heterotrophs
Protista / Eukaryotic - nucleus
(most unicellular, few multicellular) / Paramecium, euglenoid, slime mold, dinoflagellate / All live in marine or freshwater / Some autotrophic others heterotrophic
(Absorb, photosynthesize, or ingest food)
Fungi / Eukaryotic
(most multicellular some unicellular- yeast) / Black bread mold, yeast, mushroom, bracket fungus / Found in marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environments / Some autotrophic, others heterotrophic
(absorb food, photosynthesize)
Plantae / Eukaryotic
(multicellular) / Moss, fern, pine tree, nonwoody flowering plant / Freshwater, terrestrial / Autotrophic
(photosynthesize food)
Animalia / Eukaryotic
(multicellular) / Coral, earthworm, blue jay, squirrel / Marine, freshwater, terrestrial / Heterotrophic (ingest food)
