|---|---|
| Cell | the smallest unit of an organism that perform life functions |
| nucleus | a structure found in Eukaryota cells that contain DNA and is responsible for controlling the activities of the cell |
| Eukaryota | a cell containing a membrane enclosed nucleus and organelles |
| Prokaryotic | a cell lacking a nucleus or any other membrane enclosed organelles |
| unicellular | an organism made up of one single cell |
| multicellular | an organism made of more than one cell, and often made of different types of cells |
| classification | the process of grouping things based on similarities |
| taxonomy | the branch of science that formally names and classifies organism by their structure function and relationship |
| Domain | the highest and largest rank if grouping organism Three groups: Archaea,Bacteria, and Eukaray |
| Bacteria | prokaryotic, single celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell |
| Archaea | prokaryotic, single celled organism that lacks nucleus in its cell and can live in extreme enviroments |
| Eukarya | organism with cells that contain a nucleus |
| Kingdom | a taxonomic rank below Domain 6 groups: Animalia , Fungi, plantae, Protista, Archaea, and Eubacteria |
