Six Kingdoms
Vocabulary
Which term means one-celled? Many-celled?
multicellular
 unicellular

Which term means that the organism produces its
own food? Consumes food?

autotroph

heterotroph
Number of cells

Multicellular- organisms made of two or more
cells.
 Example:

animal, plants, fungi
Unicellular- organism made of single cell
 Example:
bacteria, protist
Vocabulary

Prokaryotic – describes an
organism with cells that have a cell
membrane but do NOT have a
nucleus

Eukaryotic – describes an organism
with cells that have a membrane
bound organelles and a nucleus
(nuclear membrane)
Vocabulary

Autotrophic –
makes its own food
Examples:
photoautotrophs,
chemoautotrophs

Heterotrophic – gets
nutrients from the
food it consumes

(niche)
 Archaebacteria- extreme environment
 Eubacteria- everywhere in daily life
(humans large intestine)
 Protista- Pond water, land, air
 Fungi-trees, ground
 Plantae-everywhere (land and water)
 Animalia – everywhere (land, air, water)

Kingdom Eubacteria

Bacteria can live in many places on earth,
inhabiting a wide variety of habitats, including
other organisms

Unicellular

Prokaryotic

Autotrophic or heterotrophic

Thick cells walls with peptidoglycan
Kingdom Eubacteria

Bacteria come in
different shapes,
such as round, spiral
and rod-shaped.
Kingdom Eubacteria

Bacteria can cause a wide variety of
diseases, such as strep throat, food
poisoning and the Black Death (bubonic
plague of the Middle Ages)
Kingdom Eubacteria

Bacteria also play
an important role in
decomposition,
nitrogen fixation
and human
digestion (E. coli)
Soybean root containing
billions of bacteria
Kingdom Eubacteria

Procholorococcus –
an autotrophic
bacterium – What
does that mean
about how it gets its
nutrients?
Kingdom Eubacteria

Bacteria from an
Nitrifying Trickle Filter
(NTF) stained with
acridene
orange. The stain
makes
DNA appear yellow
and
RNA appear
orange.
Kingdom Archaebacteria

Bacteria that live in extreme habitats, such as hot
springs, geysers, volcanic hot pools, brine pools,
black smokers

Unicellular

Prokaryotic

Autotrophic or heterotrophic

Cell walls without peptidoglycan
Kingdom Archaebacteria
Morning Glory Pool in Yellowstone National Park – note the bright colors
from the archaebacteria growing in the extremely hot water.
Kingdom Archaebacteria

Some like it hot! Bacillus infernus
Kingdom Archaebacteria
Archaebacteria
can live deep in the
ocean near
geothermal vents
called black
smokers
 There is no light, so
they carry out
chemosynthesis
instead of
photosynthesis

Kingdom Protista

Extremely diverse group

Eukaryotic

Most unicellular, some colonial, some multicellular

Autotrophic and heterotrophic

Some with cell walls containing cellulose; some
carry out photosynthesis with chloroplasts
Kingdom Protista
Euglena - autotrophic
Volvox – a colonial protist
A slime mold
Amoeba - heterotrophic
Kingdom Fungi

Eukaryotic

Most are multicellular

Heterotrophic (decomposers)

Cell walls made of chitin
Kingdom Fungi
