Kingdom Monera
|
Prokaryotes
usually unicellular includes photosynthetic, chemosynthetic and heterotrophic forms have a cell wall reproduce asexually by binary fission bacteria, blue green bacteria |
|
|
Kingdom Fungi
|
Heterotrophs
cell wall made of chitin cells have a membrane enclosed nucleus produce spores Release enzymes that break down food reproductive structure called the fruiting body appears above ground and carries spore mushrooms, toadstools, yeasts, molds |
|
|
Kingdom Protista
|
Unicellular and multicellular
heterotrophs photosynthetic algae, amoeba, protozoa, red algae eukaryotic |
|
|
Kingdom Plantae
|
multicellular
photosynthetic - autotrophs cell wall made of cellulose ferns, conifers splits into vascular and non - vascular plants |

Phylum Echinodermata
|
all marine
internal skeleton covered by a skin adults are radially symmetrical unsegmented water vascular system with tube feet that assist in locomotion and feeding starfish, sea urchins, sea cucumbers and sand dollars |
|
|
Viruses
|
tinier than bacteria
invade cell to take over functions structure consists of outer protein coat enclosing a nucleic acid molecule that carries genetic instructions do not have a cellular structure measles, influenza virus can be crystallized to be preserved - virions |
