| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Life Classification System | Criteria to distinguish between life and non-life. |
| Five Kingdom System | Classifies living organisms in biology. |
| Study of Life | Biology |
| Kingdom Monera | Group of microscopic organisms, the simplest form of life, made of prokaryotic cells. |
| What Kingdom is bacteria an example of? | Kingdom Monera |
| Kingdom Protista | Group similar to Monera, but are made of eukaryotic cells and are much larger. A few of them make their own food, but not all. |
| Kingdom Fungi | Group where most of the organisms feed on dead organisms. |
| Pathogen | An organism that causes disease. |
| Kingdom Plantae | Group that contains organisms that make their own food (plants). |
| Dehydrated food | When almost all water has been removed and the item can be stored for a long time. |
| How did people store food before refrigeration? | They salted it to reduce bacterial growth. |
| Are all bacteria pathogenic? | No, the bacteria that live inside your body can help you. |
| Example of good bacteria: | Intestine dwelling bacteria, like vitamin K, help you digest your food. |
| How can bacteria help make cheese? | Bacteria starter is added to milk and it produces lactic acid. It separates the curds and we use curds to make cheese. |
| How can bacteria help the earth? | Decomposes dead organisms. |
| Plants make their own food through this process. | Photosynthesis |
| Protista is split into these groups: | Protozoa and Algae |
| What Protista group is the most single-celled and tend to behave like little animals? | Protozoa |
| What Protista group is like plants? | Algae |
| Where do Protista live? | Freshwater |
| Decomposer | Organisms that break down the dead remains of other organisms. |
| Mycelium | the actual fungus |
| Shelf fungi | Fungi that grows on dead or dying trees. |
| Mold | General term used for different fungi that grows on food. |
| Vegetative reproduction | The process by which one part of a plant can form new roots and develop into a complete plant. |
| Stems | Help transport the nutrients and water to the leaves of a plant. |
| Roots | Absorbs water and nutrients from the soil. |
| Cell Wall | Surrounds the outside membrane of a plant. |
| Central Vacuole | Organelle in a plant that fills with water. |
| What could cause a flower to wilt? | It may be unable to absorb enough water to keep its turgor pressure up. |
| Most of a plant's photosynthesis takes place in its leaves. Where does the rest of the photosynthesis take place? | In the stems. |
| What would happen to a plant cell if it did not have a cell wall? Your Answer: | It would explode. |
| If an organism is not a single-celled prokaryotic cell, not a single-celled eukaryotic cell, not a form of algae, not a fungus, and not a plant, it is an animal and belongs in .... | Kingdom Animalia |
| Cyclops | Microscopic animal with one eye. |
| Members of kingdoms Monera and Plantae can be classified based only on .... | their cells. |
