WELCOME, BIO-NINJAS
Today you will need: Writing Utensil, Bellwork Sheet,
Journal and Kingdoms Chart.
Have your Homework out and ready.
Bellwork: Use your notes/chart from yesterday to complete
the bellwork.
• Write the following question and a complete answer:
• What are at least two similarities and two differences between
Archaebacteria and Eubacteria? (there are multiple correct
answers)
Quiz Time
• You will have 7 minutes to complete the quiz
• Number 6 is a bonus question
• When you finish open your notes and start a
new page called “Protists and Fungi”
Homework Tonight
• Use the video to answer questions on the
sheet you picked up.
• Due Tomorrow! Expect a quiz!
Youtube: “Protists by Bozeman Science”
Video is only about 5 minutes long
Quick Recap
Walking pneumonia: the
Gonorrhea is a
result of a bacterial lung
infection from Mycoplasma
pneumoniae.
sexually transmitted
disease (STD) caused
by a bacterium
Halophiles:These are
salt-loving bacteria
that grow in places
like the Great Salt
Lake of Utah
Archaebacteria
Archaea
Eubacteria
Bacteria
Protista
Fungi
Eukarya
Plantae Anamalia
The Six
Kindoms
And from these Domains
evolved the six Kingdoms.
Prepare page 62 for Notes
Standard B8.C: Compare characteristics
of taxonomic groups including archaea,
bacteria, fungi, protists, plants and
animals
Essential Question: How would I know
if I’m looking at a protist or fungi?
Domain Eukaryota
KINGDOM PROTISTA
• Protists are simple eukaryotic microorganisms.
• can be unicellular or multicellular but contain no
specialized tissue.
• Examples: algae, amoebae, protozoans, euglena, and slime
molds.
• Protists live in aquatic environments, love pond water
• Can be photosynthetic autotrophs or heterotrophs.
• Amoebae eat by phagocytosis. They surround and take
other cells into their membranes.
• Sexual or Asexual reproduction
• Some are parasites and can cause diseases.
• 3 ways protists move:
1. Flagellum = tail whip
2. Cilia = tiny hairs
3. Pseudopod = “fake foot”

fungi
• Fungi are eukaryotic
• Examples: yeasts, molds, and mushrooms.
• Mostly multicellular, but some, like yeast are unicellular.
• Fungal cells have cell walls that contain chitin.
• Fungi are heterotrophs/decomposers.
• Reproduction can be both asexual and sexual at
different stages in their life cycles and often involves
the production and dispersal of spores.
• Harmful: Some fungi can cause disease in
plants or animals. 
• Helpful: penicillin (antibiotic) is a type of mold that
kills bacteria. 
• Helpful: Yeast is used to bake bread while other
fungi are used to produce cheese and yogurt. 
