Term
Definition
6 Kingdoms   animal, plant, fungi, protist, eubacteria, archeabacteria  
🗑
heterotrophs   Have to eat to get nutrition. Can not make their own food.  
🗑
autotrophs   Make their own food, glucose, using the sun's energy.  
🗑
What do we use to place organisms in to their kingdoms?   Cell type, their ability to make own food from sun, the number of cells in their body  
🗑
Where are archeabacteria found?   in extreme places- too hot, too cold, too salty, too acidic, not enough oxygen- where nothing else could live. Sewage, Hot Thermal Volcano Vents, Hot Springs, Very salty water, Acid.  
🗑
Eubacteria Kingdom- sometimes just called Bacteria Kingdom   Prokaryote- no nucleus, heterotroph and autotroph, one celled  
🗑
Archeabecteria Kingdom   Prokaryote- no nucleus, heterotroph and autotroph, one celled The DNA and locations in extreme environments are what make them different from eubacteria kingdom.  
🗑
Protist Kingdom- with examples   Eukaryote- have a nucleus, heterotroph and autotroph, one celled, (exception is the multicelled seaweed). Amoeba, Euglena, Paramecium are some examples.  
🗑
Fungi Kingdom- with examples   Eukaryote-have a nucleus, heterotroph only, multicellular (exception is the one celled yeast). Mushroom, Mold, Mildew and Yeast are examples.  
🗑
Plant Kingdom   Eukaryote- have a nucleus, autotroph only, multicellular.  
🗑
Animal Kingdom   Eukaryote- have a nucleus, heterotroph only, multicellular.  
🗑
Taxonomy   Study of classification  
🗑
Taxonomist   Person who classifies  
🗑
Common Name and Scientific Name   Common Name- the popular name for an organism. example:American Robin, Scientific Name: Turdus migatorius Scientific Name- the genus and species names used for an organism.  
🗑
Carnivore   Eats only meat.  
🗑
Herbivore   Eats only plants.  
🗑
Omnivore   Eats meat and plants.  
🗑
Aristotle   First man to come up with a classification system for living organisms. He classified animals as backbone-fly, swim, walk- and no backbone.  
🗑
Carlos Linnaeus   Gave each living organism a genus and species name that we still use today. Binomial Nomenclature.  
🗑
Charles Darwin   Father of Genetics. Evolution, Natural Selection, Common Ancestor.  
🗑
Taxonomy- 8 Levels from most broad to narrow.   Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species. Do Kings Play Cards On Fat Green Stools?  
🗑
What 2 kingdoms have all multicellular members?   Plant and Animal Kingdoms  
🗑
What 4 Kingdoms are Eukaryot ? (Have a nucleus)   Protist Fungi Plant Animal  
🗑
How can Bacteria be harmful to humans?   Bacteria can cause disease and rot our food.  
🗑
Which kingdom digests outside its body and then absorbs the material?   Fungi  
🗑
What 4 kingdoms have autotroph members?   Plant, Bacteria, Archaebacteria, Protist.  
🗑
Bacteria shapes   Cocci-round, sprilla- spiral, bacilli-rod  
🗑
yeast   The only one-celled organism in the Fungi Kingdom- reproduces by budding  
🗑
Seaweed   The only multi-celled organism in the Protist Kingdom  
🗑
endospore   bacteria form a thick round wall around its DNA and wait for conditions to be favorable  
🗑
How are bacteria helpful?   Bacteria help us digest food in our intestines, decompose waste material to recycle it back into the environment, make vitamins, clean up oil spills, flavor cheese and other food, help plants get nitrogen, help in genetic medicine.  
🗑
Parisite   A symbiotic relationship where one organism is harmed.  
🗑
Saprophyte   organism that lives on dead material.  
🗑
binary fission- asexual reproduction- mitosis   when a cell divides into two identical cells  
🗑
conjugation   When a bacteria exchanges a piece of its DNA with another bacteria which results in two unique bacteria  
🗑
Symbiotic Relationship   Two organisms living together for a period of time.  
🗑
mutualism   A symbiotic relationship where both organisms benefit.  
🗑
commensalism   A symbiotic relationship where one organism benefits and the other is not affected negatively or positively.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
