ch. 10 diffentriate between eukaryotic, prokaryotic, and viral species Flashcards
eukaryotic species
group of closely related organisms that can breed amongst themselves
protista
(autotrophic) synthesize own food
(heterotrophic) can’t synthesize own food– consumers
how are eukaryotic species grouped
grouped into clades based on rRNA
Fungi description
chemoheterotrophic – uses organic substances as energy source; unable to make own food
can fungi species be unicellular or multicellular
both
what are the cell walls of fungi made of
chitin – developed form spores or hyphal fragments
Plantae
multicellular- cellulose cell walls and undergo photosynthesis
Animalia
multicellular
no cell walls
chemoheterotrophic
prokaryotic species
population of cells with similar characteristics
culture
bacteria grown in lab media
clone
population of cells derived from a single parent cell (identical)
strain
genetically different cells with a clone
viral species
not part of any domain; population of viruses with a similar characteristic that occupies a particular ecological niche
are viral species composed of cells
no
what type of cell do viral species require
hosts cells
