Six Kingdoms Activity8C compare characteristics of taxonomic groups, including archaea, bacteria,
protists, fungi, plants, and animals
Teacher Instructions:As students enter the classroom, give each student a picture of one of the organisms. instruct students to answer the following questions: 1. Is your object/organism alive?2. List 3 – 5 characteristics that let you to this conclusion. Instruct students classify themselves into one of the six kingdoms signs posted in different corners of the room. Encourage discussion and tell students to make sure they are in the right spot by reading though the characteristics at each station. Have each group introduce their kingdom, have each student share their organism and describe to the class one characteristic that their organism exhibits that classifies them in that group.
Warm Up: Obtain a picture card and answer the following questions.
• 1. What is your organism/object and is it alive?
• 2. List 3-5 characteristics that let you to this conclusion.
KINGDOM ARCHEA• Single celled bacteria with no peptidoglycan• Prokaryote = no nucleus• Can be chemoautrotrophs or heterotrophs• Live in EXTREME environments such as: – Thermophiles – extreme heat– Thermoacidophiles – Convert sulfur into food in
extreme heat–Methanogens – produce methane gas in low
oxygen conditions
KINGDOM BACTERIA• Single celled bacteria WITH peptidoglycan• Prokaryotes = no nucleus• Can live in most environments• Some can move with flagella or pili• Reproduce Asexually with Conjugation (genetic
exchange)
KINGDOM PROTISTA• Eukaryotes = Nucleus• Some are Animal-like:• Heterotrophic (eat food), move around, BUT
are single celled• Some are Plant-like:• Multicellular, Photosynthetic
BUT have no cell wall• Some are Fungus-like:• Multicellular, Heterotrophic
decomposers, BUT no cell wall.• Protists can be: • sedentary or Mobile: cilia, pseudopods, flagella• Single-Celled or Multi-Celled or colonial• Asexual or sexual reproducers
KINGDOM FUNGI• Eukaryotes = nucleus• All are heterotrophs• Multicellular or Unicellular or
colonial• Some are parasites, • Some are decomposers called
detritivores.• Cell walls of Chitin (*Kytin)
KINGDOM PLANTAE• Eukaryotes = Nucleus• Autotrophs (producers) that produce
energy through photosynthesis in their chloroplasts.
• Cell Walls of Cellulose• All are multicellular • Sexual Reproduction (usually)
KINGDOM ANIMALIA• Eukaryotes = Nucleus• All are multicellular • All are heterotrophs • No cell walls• Reproduce sexually and have no cell walls.• Dorsal dorsal nerve cord coordinates mobility
and life functions.
Thermophiles – Single celled, no nucleus, Loves HEAT!
Thermoacidophiles – Single celled, no nucleus, lives in hot sulfur
Halophiles – Single celled, no nucleus, Loves extreme salt
Anaerobes – Single celled, no nucleus, Poisoned by O2
E. Coli – Single Celled, no nucleus, lives in your intestines
Spirillum – Single celled, no nucleus, contain flagella
Cynobacteria – Single celled, no nucleus, aquatic habitats
Cocci Bacteria – Single celled, no nucleus, infectious
Amoeba – single celled, with nucleus, captures prey with pseudopods
Paramecium – single celled, with nucleus, move with specialized cilia to capture prey
Euglena – Single celled, with nucleus, photosynthetic, moves with flagella to catch prey
Algae – multicellular, photosynthetic, contain nucleus, no cell walls
Slime mold – Multicellular, heterotrophic, contains nucleus, no cell walls
Volvox – Single cell colonies, contain nucleus
Mold – Multicellular, contain nucleus, heterotrophic, cell walls of chitin
Penicillin – Multicellular, contain nucleus, heterotrophic, cell walls of chitin
Yeast – Single Celled, contain nucleus, heterotrophic, cell walls contain chitin Mushroom – Multicellular, contain nucleus,
heterotrophic, cell walls contain chitin
Moss – Multicellular, contains nucleus, photosynthetic, cell walls of cellulose Ferns – Multicellular, contains nucleus,
photosynthetic, cell walls of cellulose
Oak Tree – multicellular, photosynthetic, cell walls of cellulose
Orchid – multicellular, photosythetic, cell walls of cellulose
Tube Sponge – Multicellular, heterotrophic, mobile as larve
Earthworm – Multicellular, heterotrophic, mobile
Cardinal – Multicellular, heterotrophic, mobile
Tiger – Multicellular, heterotrophic, mobile
Human? – Multicellular eukaryote, heterotrophic, mobile
Copperhead snake – Multicellular eukaryote, heterotrophic, mobile
Diamond – composed of carbon Moon – Composed of metallic iron, rotates around the Earth
HIV Virus – Composed of protein and DNA, not made of cells, does not eat. Can reproduce only with a host.
