SIX KINGDOM SCHEMES OF LIVING ORGANISMS

Prepared by: Donnavelt M Saavedra and Hazel C. Ranario

Kingdom Archaebacteria

“extreme bacteria” Cell: unicellular, prokaryotic Type of Organism: decomposers and

producers Nutrition: autotrophic or heterotrophic Habitat: extreme environments- hot

springs, geysers, black smokers & etc. Movement: motile Reproduction: asexual

Morning Glory Pool in Yellowstone National Park – note the bright colors from the archaebacteria growing in the extremely hot water.

Kingdom Archaebacteria

Methanogens - make methane

Halophiles - lives in high salt

concentrations

Thermophiles - heat loving

Cell: unicellular, prokaryotic Type of organism: Nutrition: autotrophic or heterotrophic Habitat: everywhere (even inside you!) Movement: motile… Reproduction: asexual

Kingdom Eubacteria

Most familiar bacteria: Streptococcus Lactobacillus Staphylococcus

Kingdom Eubacteria

Kingdom Eubacteria

“Odds and Ends” kingdom Cell: unicellular and multicellular, eukaryotic Types of organisms: decomposers, producers

and consumers Nutrition: autotrophic or heterotrophic or

both Habitat: all aquatic Movement: mobile or immobile Reproduction: asexual or sexual

Kingdom Protista

Fungus-like Plant-like

slime mold

water moldalgae

Dinoflagellates

Euglenoids

Diatoms

Examples of Protists

Animal-like and

Examples of Protists

Pseudopods (amoeba)

Flagella

(Giardia)

Cilia (Parameciu

m)

Economic Importance: Source of food Source of Commercial products Primary producer of aquatic ecosystem Source of medicines Source of minerals

Kingdom Protista

Cell: multicellular, eukaryotic and cell wall contains chitin

Type of organism: decomposer Nutrition: heterotrophic (saprobes) Habitat: terrestrial Movement: immobile Reproduction: asexual or sexual

Kingdom Fungi

Five major groups: 1. Basidiomycota - Club Fungi

2. Ascomycota - Sac Fungi

3. Mycophycota - Lichens

4. Zygomycota - Conjugation Fungi

5. Deuteromycota - Imperfect Fungi

Bread mold

Economic importance

• Food- truffles & snow fungus

• Cosmetics• Medicine- Penicillium

• Decomposer of Organic waste in soil• Liquor- yeast

Type of Cells: multicellular, eukaryotic and have cell walls, cellulose and chloroplast.

Types of organisms: producers Habitat: terrestrial, aquatic & aerial Nutrition: autotrophic Movement: immobile Reproduction: asexual and sexual Examples: Mosses, Ferns, Conifers

Kingdom Plantae

Plants

Non-Vascular

Vascular

Gymnosperms

Angiosperms

Monocot

Dicot

2 major Divisions of Kingdom Plantae

Non-Vascular Plants Vascular Plants

lack vascular tissues

relatively small

lack true roots, stems,

and leaves

possess xylem and

phloem (vascular tissues)

have roots, stems, and

leaves

and their surfaces are

coated with a waxy

covering that reduces

water loss

2 divisions of Vascular Plants:

1. Gymnosperms- or “naked seed”

- do not produce flowers but cones- arborvitae, cedar, cypress, fir,

hemlock, juniper, pine, and spruce trees

2. Angiosperms- or “enclosed seed”

- produce flowers - Oaks, maples, and other trees that turn

bright colors in autumn- almost all fruits and vegetables

Dicot Monocot

two cotyledons one cotyledon

branched parallel

four/five petals multiples of 3

2 seed leaves 1 seed leaf

Taproot system Fibrous roots

2 divisions of Angiosperms:

2 divisions of Angiosperms:

MonocotExamples

DicotExamples

Grains, (wheat, corn, rice, millet) lilies, daffodils, sugarcane, banana, palm, ginger, onions, bamboo, sugar, cone, palm tree, banana tree,grass

Legumes (pea, beans, lentils, peanuts) daisies, mint, lettuce, tomato, oak, tree, etc.

2 major Divisions of Kingdom Plantae: Non – Vascular Plants

2 major Divisions of Kingdom Plantae: Vascular Plants

Angiosperms (monocot)

Economic Importance:

Food Agriculture Drugs Aesthetic use Commercial use

Type of Cells: multicellular, eukaryotic and have cell membrane (specialized cell)

Type of organism: consumers Nutrition: heterotrophic Habitat: some animals are adopted for

living on land, water or both Movement: motile or immotile Reproduction: sexual or asexual
