Five Kingdoms
|
animalia, plantae, fungi, protista, monera
|
|
|
Prokaryotic cells
|
small <10 microns, no nucleus, DNA is single-stranded, no organelles, divides by cloning/binary fission
|
|
|
Eukaryotic cells
|
large >10microns, DNA double stranded in nucleus, organelles, divides by mitosis
|
|
|
monera (bacteria)
|
-wide array of metabolic diversity
-peptidoglycan cell wall -dna is acquired not inherited -maintain the planet's biogeochemical cycles -oldest-known fossils, first organisms |
|
|
Protoctista
|
-earliest eukaryotes
-mostly colonial or solitary -no cell walls -ex:alga, amoeba, ciliates, slime molds -gave rise to fungi, plantae,animalia |
|
|
Fungi
|
-haploid chromosomes in most groups
-grow from spores -absorptive nutrition -cell wall is made of chitin |
|
|
Plantae
|
-Diploid, haploid, and polyploid chromosomes
-Cellulose cell wall |
|
|
Animalia
|
-Diploid, chromosomes
-No cell wall |
|
|
