What are the six kingdoms?

AnimaliaPlantaeFungiProtistArchaebacteriaEubacteria

Characteristics of Animalia

Multi-cellular, heterotrophic (has to get own food), eukaryotes, able to move, symmetrical

Characteristics of Plantae

Autotrophs (can make their own food), cell walls, multi-cellular, eukaryotes, sessile (can't move)

Characteristics of Fungi

Multi-cellular, eukaryotes, made of hyphae, heterotrophic, sessile, cell wall, decomposers

Characteristics of Protists

Eukaryotes, mostly uni-cellular but some are multi-cellular like seaweed, heterotrophic and autotrophic

Characteristics of Archaebacteria

Prokaryote (single celled with no nucleus), uni-cellular, heterotrophic and autotrophic, extremophile (able to thrive under chemical and physical extremes)

Characteristics of Eubacteria

Some are Aerobic (need oxygen to survive), some are Anaerboic (die if oxygen is present), heterotrophic and autotrophic, decomposers

What do Plasma Membranes do?

selects what enters or exits the cell in order to maintain homeostatis (equilibrium). Membrane is selectively permeable

Polar Phosphate Heads

allows cell membrane to interact with water

Non-Polar Fatty Acid Tails

they avoid water, form interior of membrane

Cholesterol

helps stabilize by preventing fatty tails from sticking together

Transport Proteins

move needed substances or waste materials through membrane, also give flexibility

Carbohydrate Chains

sticks out from cell surface, helps cells to identify chemical signals
