The 5 kingdoms ( chapter 10) Flashcards
1
Q
what are the 5 kingdoms?
A
- prokaryote
- protoctista
- fungi
- plantae
- animalia
2
Q
prokaryote general features
A
- unicellular
- no nucleus or other membrane bound organelles
- nutrients absorbed through cell wall or produced by photosynthesis
3
Q
protoctista
A
- unicllular
- a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles
- some ehave chloroplasts
- move by cilia, flagella or amoeboid mechanisms
- nutrients aquired by photosynthesis or ingestion of other organisms
4
Q
fungi
A
- unicellular or multicellular
- a nucleus and other membrane boud organelles and a cell wall (chitin)
- no chloroplasta / chlorophyll
- nutrients is aquired through absorption
- store food as glycogen
5
Q
plantae
A
- multicellular
- a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles and cell wall (cellulose)
- contain chlorophyll
- most dont move
- nutrients aquired through photosynthetis
- store food as starch
6
Q
animalia
A
- multicellular
- a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles
- no chloroplasts
- move with cilia, flagella, or contractile proteins
- nutrients acquired by ingestion
- food stored as glycogen
7
Q
archaebacteria
A
Known as ancient bacteria, can live in extreme environments
8
Q
eubacteria
A
Known as true bacteria, found in all environments, most bacteria are of eubacteria kingdom.
