prokaryotic - lacks membrane bound organelles |
|
|
|
uni or multi celled? |
most are unicellular |
|
|
|
nutrition |
autotrophs-make their own food by photosynthesis. heterotrophs-use the energy in some chemical compounds to produce food saprobe and parasites- some cannot produce their own food. |
