---|---|
cell | the smallest unit of organism that preforms life functions |
nucleus | a structure found in eukaryotic cells cells that contain DNA and is responsible for controlling the activities of the cell |
eukaryotic | a cell containing a membrane enclosed nucleus and organelles |
prokaryotic | a cell lacking a nucleus or any other membrane enclosed organelles |
unicellelar | a organism made of one single cell |
multicellular | an organism made up more than one cell and often made up of different cells |
classification | the process of grouping things based on simalarities |
taxonomy | the branch of science that formally names and classifies organisms by their structure functions and relationship |
domain | the highest and largest rank of grouping organism three groups: archaea bacteria eukarya |
bacteria | prokarotic single celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell |
archaea | prokarotic single celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell and can live in extreme enviorements |
eukarya | organisms with cells that contain a nucleus |
kingdom | a taxonomic rank below the domain 6 groups :animalia fungi ' plantae protista archea and eubacteria |
autotroph | an organism that is able to make its own food known as a producer in food chain |
hetrotroph | an organism that cannot make its own food known as a consumer in the food chain |

cell theory | states that all living organisms are made up of 1 or more cells cells are the basic unit of life and all cells come from other cells |
Archeabacteria | unicellular asexual auto hetrotrouph prokaryotic organism that live in extreme enviorements |
eubacteria | unicellular asexual auto and hetrotrouph prokaryotic organism that live in moderate enviorements |
protista | uni and multi cellalar sexual or asexual hetrotroph eukaryotic organism that are microscopic |
fungi | uni and multicellular sexual and asexual htrotrophic eukaryotic organism known as a decomposer in the food chain |
plantae | multicellular sexual and a sexual autotrophs eukaryotic organism known as a producer in the food chain |
animilia | multicellular sexual and asexual hetrotrophs eukaryotic organisms known as a consumer in the food chain |
