Taxonomic Groups
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| cell | the smallest unit of an organism that performs |
| nucleus | a structure found in Eukaryota cells that contain DNA and is responsible for controlling the activities of the cell |
| eukaryotic | a cell containing a nucleus or any other membrane-enclosed organelles |
| prokaryotic | a cell lacking a nucleus or any other membrane-enclosed organelles |
| unicellular | organism made up of 1cell |
| multicellular | organism made more than one cell |
| classification | process of grouping things based on similarities |
| 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: Archean, Bacteria, and Eukarya |
| domain bacteria | prokaryotic, single-celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell |
| domain eukarya | organisms with cells that contain a nucleus |
| domain archaea | prokaryotic single-celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell and can live in extreme enviroments |
| kingdom | a taxonomic rank below Domain 6 Groups: Animal, fungi,, plantade, protista, archaea, and Eubacteria |
| autotroph | an organism that make its own food; known as a producer in the food chin |
| heterotroph | CANNOT make its own food; known as a consumer in the food chin |
| asexual reproduction | requires only one parent 100% DNA from 1 parent |
| sexual reproduction | requires both parents 50% from 1 parent and another 50% from the other parent |
| cell theory | that all living organism are made up of 1 or more cells; cells are the basic unit of life |
| kingdom archeabacterea | unicellular, asexual, auto and heterortroph, pro karyota organisum lives in extreme enviroments |
| kingdom eubacteria | uni cellar , asexual ,,auto and hetrerotroph, prokaryotic orgainisum that live in moderate enviroments |
| kingdom protista | uni- and muticellular sexual or asexual , auto and hetrotrophic, |
| kingdom fungi | uni- and muticellular sexual or asexual hetrotrophic, , eukaryotic and is a decompose in the food chain |
| kingdom plantae | multicellular, sexual and asexual ,autotrophs orgainisum |
| kingdom animilia | multicellular, sexual and asexual , hetorotoph ' eukaryotic orgainisums; known as a consumer in the food chain |
