cell | the smallest unit of an organism that performs life functions |
nucleus | a structure found in eukaryotic cells that contain DNA and is responsible for controlling the activities of the cell |
eukaryotic | a cell containing a membrane enclosed nucleus and organelles |
prokoryotic | a cell lacking a nucleus or any other membrane enclosed organelles |
unicellular | an organism made up of one single cell |
multicellular | an organism made up of more than one cell and often made up of different types of cells |
classification | the process of grouping things based on similsrities |
taxonomy | the branch of science that formally names and classifies organisms by their structure, function and relationship |
domain | the highest and largest rank of grouping organisms, three groups: Archaea Bacteria, and Eukarya |
domain bacteria | prokaryotic, single- celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell |
domain archaea | prokaryotic , single-celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell and can live in extreme environments |
domain eukarya | organisms with cells that contain a nucleus |
kingdom | a taxonomic rank below domain, 6 groups animalia, fungi, plantea, protista, archeae, and eubacteria |

kingdom Archeabacteria | unicellular asexual, auto and heterotroph, prokaryotic, organism that live in extreme environments |
kingdom Eubacteria | unicellular, asexual auto and hetrotrophh prokaryotic organism that live in moderate environments |
kingdom protista | uni- and multicellular sexual or asexual, auto- and hetrotrophic eukaryotic organism that are microscopic |
kingdom Fungi | uni- and multicellular sexual or asexual, hetro trophic, eukaryotic organism ; known as a decompose in the food chain |
