Answer 1

1) Eubacteria —> prokaryotes
2) archaea —> prokaryotes
3) eukaryotes —> eukaryotes

Question 2

What is a Prokaryotes

Answer 2

Is a type of cell, which has a simple structure— lacks organelles, no nucleus, and is smaller than

Question 3

What is a eukaryote

Answer 3

It is a cell type with a complex structure— nucleus, organelles, larger

Question 4

1) Archaeabacteria
2) Eubacteria
3) Fungi
4) Protista
5) Plantae
6) Animalia

Question 5

What are the four main characteristics we look at with each kingdom

Answer 5

Cell type: eukaryotic or prokaryotic
Cell number: uni or multicellular
Feeding type: heterotroph or autotroph
Reproduction: sexual or asexual

Question 6

What are the four main characteristics we look at with each kingdom

Answer 6

Cell type: eukaryotic or prokaryotic
Cell number: uni or multicellular
Feeding type: heterotroph (consumer) or autotroph (producer)
Reproduction: sexual or asexual

Question 7

Types of asexual reproduction

Answer 7

Involves 1 parent, genetically identical offspring

1. Binary Fission: Splits into two daughter cells.
2. Fragmentation: Breaks fragments of itself off, which regrow into a new individual.
3. Budding: Grows from a bud or outgrowth on the parent, then breaks off to grow independently.

Question 8

Archaebacteria

Answer 8

Bacteria that lives in harsh conditions

Cell Type: Prokaryotic
Cell Number: Unicellular
Feeding Type: Mostly heterotrophic, some autotrophic
Reproduction: Asexual (binary fission)

Question 9

Eubacteria

Answer 9

Bacteria that lives in normal conditions

Cell Type: Prokaryotic
Cell Number: Unicellular
Feeding Type: Mostly heterotrophic, some autotrophic
Reproduction: Asexual (binary fission)

Protista

Answer 10

Organism made of one eukaryotic cell

Cell Type: Eukaryotic

Answer 11

Mushrooms and mold

Cell Type: Eukaryotic
