|---|---|
| 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- |
| 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 similarities |
| domain eukarya | organisms with cells that contain a nucleus |
| domain bacteria | prokaryotic single celled organism that locks a nucleus in its cell |
| kingdom animelia | multicellular sexual and asexual heterotrophs,eukaryotic organisms known as a consumer in the food chain |
| kingdom archeabacteria | unicellular, asexual, auto and herterotroph, prokaryotic organism that live in extreme enviroments |
| asexual reproduction | a method of reproduction that requires only one parent 100 dna from 1 parent |
| cell theory | states that all living organisms are made up 1 or more cells, cells are the basic unit of life and all cells come from other cells |
| autotroph | an organism that is able to make its own food known as a producer in food chain |
| taxonomy | the branch of science that formally names and classifies organism by their structure function and relationship |
| kingdom eubacteria | unicellular asexual auto and heterotroph, prokaryotic organism that live in moderate enviroments |
| kingdom protista | uni and multicellular sexual or asexual auto and heterotrophic eukaryotic organism that are micoscopic |
| kingdomk fungi | uni and multicellular sexual or asexual, heterotrophic, eukaryotic organism known as a decomposer in the food chain |
| kingdom plantae | multicellular sexual and asexual autotrophs eukaryotic organism known as a producer in the food chain |
| kingdom | a taxomic rank below domain 6 groups animelia fungi plantae protista archaed and eubacteria |
| heterotroph | an organism that cannot make its own food known as a consumer in the food chain |
| sexual reproduction | a method of reproduction that requiers both male and female parent |
| domain | the highest and largest rank of grouping organism three groups archea bacteria and eukarya |
| eukaryotic | a cell containing a membrane enclosed nucleus organelles |
| prokaryotic | a cell lacking a nucleus or any other membrane enclosed organelles |
| domain archaea | prokaryotic single celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell and can live in extreme enviroments |
