Domain Eukaryota
Kingdom Plantae
Organisms from the Kingdom Plantae are multicellular eukaryotic
organisms. Plants have characteristics that make them different
from other eukaryotic organisms. One of the main differences is that
they are autotrophic, meaning they are able to make their own
food using simple inorganic substances. They do this through a
process known as photosynthesis, in which plants convert sunlight,
water, and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen. Photosynthesis
occurs in the chloroplasts of a plant cell. Plants are multicellular
and, unlike animals, their cells have rigid cell walls made from
cellulose.
Some species of plants reproduce sexually and some reproduce
asexually. In asexual reproduction, such as budding, an exact copy
of the parent is produced. Plant sexual reproduction can be assisted
by animals, as is the case with flowers and honeybees. As the
bees go from flower to flower collecting nectar, they carry pollen,
plant sex cells, with them and pollinate other plants. Pollination is
the first step in plant sexual reproduction.
The Kingdom Plantae is divided into 11 Phyla. For example, Phylum
Bryophyta are mosses- small, soft plants that don’t have flowers.
They absorb water and nutrients through their leaves, which are 1
cell thick.

Animals are a group of multicellular eukaryotic organisms. The
word animal comes from the Latin word animalis meaning
“having breath.”
Animals are different from other eukaryotes in a number of
ways.
First, animal cells lack the rigid cell wall that plants, fungi, and
algae have. Instead, animal cells are surrounded only by a cell
membrane. Second, animals are heterotrophic, meaning that
they must ingest other organisms in order to survive.
Heterotrophs are the consumers in the food chain. Third, all
animals are motile, or able to move, at least during one stage of
their life cycle. Nearly all animals undergo some form of sexual
reproduction, where specialized sex cells form and fuse together
to form zygotes, which develop into individuals. Some animals
are also capable of asexual reproduction, through budding or
forms of cloning.
The Kingdom Animalia is divided into approximately 40
Phyla including Phylum Chordata, which includes all the
vertebrate animals, or animals with a backbone and spinal
column. Humans, as well as fish, birds, reptiles,
amphibians, and other mammals, belong to the Phylum
Chordata. Other phyla include Phylum Arthropoda, to
which crabs, spiders, and insects belong; and Phylum
Nematoda, which are the roundworms.

11. Describe 2 conclusions that can be
made from this information.
The information below describes the most specific levels of
classification that the mushroom sea squirt, Sycozoa gaimardi,
shares with four other organisms.
•The mushroom sea squirt is in the same class
as the common sea grape.
•The mushroom sea squirt is in the same
family as the blue spot ascidian.
•The mushroom sea squirt is in the same
order as the white speck tunicate.
•The mushroom sea squirt is in the same
phylum as the starry skate.
12. To which of the four organisms is the mushroom sea squirt
most closely related? Blue spot
13. Which of the beetles above must belong to
the same family? Hippodamia…
