Bio P3 - Domains
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| State the 3 domains and the kingdoms in each. | Domain Bacteria -> Kingdom Eubacteria | Domain Archaea -> Kingdom Archaea Bacteria | Domain Eukaryota -> Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista |
| Compare and contrast the characteristics of the 3 domains. | Eukaryotes have a nucleus and membrane bound organelles | Bacteria and Archaea do not have a nucleus. Bacteria have a cell wall made with peptidoglycan. | Archaea is the most ancient domain, and most related to eukaryotes. |
| Explain the difference between Kingdom Protista and Kingdom Fungi based on substances in their cell walls. | Fungi's cell wall is made of chitin, while protists have cell walls made of cellulose |
| Classify to the Kingdom Level an organism that has organs systems, lacks cell walls, and ingests food. | Kingdom Animalia |
| Summarize the reason why systematist separated Kingdom Eubacteria from Kingdom Archaea. | Archaebacteria have different cell wall components than bacteria. They also have differing components of their lipid membranes, and differences in rRNA |
| Write an argument for and against including viruses in the biological classification system. | F: can b classified as living beings bcz they contain either DNA or RNA, which is a importnt 4 all living organisms. A: However, viruses are "living" only when in a host cell, being inert w/o. They depend on the host cell to be alive and multiply |
| What kingdom of organisms has peptidoglycan in the cell walls? | Eubacteria |
| What kingdom contains organisms called extremophiles? | Archaea Bacteria |
| What is an extremophile? | An extremophile is an organism that thrives in extreme environments, such as extreme temperatures, acidity, or high chemical concentrations. |
| What kingdom contains types of organisms that are used to make food like bread and cheese? | Fungi |
| What taxon contains one or more kingdoms? | A domain. |
| Where would prokaryotes found living in acid run off or sulfur vents of volcanoes likely be classified? | Archaea and/or extremophiles |
| In which Kingdom would an organism that has chloroplast, cell walls, but no organs be classified? | Protista |
| What substances would most likely be in the cell walls of an organism with chloroplast and tissue? | Cellulose |
| Predict in which domain a taxonomist would place a newly discovered photosynthetic organisms that has cells without membrane bound organelles and no peptidoglycan. | Archaea |
| To which group are crustaceans most closely related? | Insects |
| How did the molecular evidence change the relationship between centipedes and spiders? | Cladogram on the left shows that spiders and centipedes have a common ancestor whereas the cladogram on the right shows that spiders & centipedes have evolved in series. |
| Which group in the cladogram appears to be the most ancestral? | Sea Spiders |
