Kingdom Characteristics
Which kingdom are mosses, ferns, conifers, and flowers a part of?
Plantae
Which domain is characterized by ancient bacteria that can live in extreme environments, such as volcanoes?
Archaea
True or False: Eubacteria can be autotrophic or heterotrophic.
True
Name 3 parts of the bacteria cell.
(Any of these): Ribosomes, Cytoplasm, Nucleoid (DNA), Pili, Plasmid, Inclusion Bodies, Flagellum, Cytoplasmic Membrane, Cell Wall, or Capsule.
Does bacteria reproduce sexually or asexually?
Asexually
This Kingdom contains heterotrophic organisms that can be unicellular or multicellular. Organisms from this kingdom can sometimes cause athlete's foor or ringworm.
Fungi
This domain contains organisms that have a nucleus in each of their cells. This domain breaks down into four kingdoms.
Eukarya
What is eubacteria also known as?
True bacteria.
What is the function of the Flagella?
To help in the bacterial movement.
True or False: Archaebacteria is considered the oldest fossil
True
What kingdom is part of the domain Archaea?
Archaebacteria
What is Archaebacteria?
A group of bacteria that are prokaryotic, anaerobic, and can live without any oxygen.
In an eubacteria cell, does the cell wall contain peptidoglycan? Yes or no?
Yes
What is the purpose of the Cell Wall?
To provide structure and shape to the cell.
Which kingdom does not contain Peptidoglycan in its bacterial cell wall?
Archaea Kingdom
What kingdoms are prokaryotic?
Eubacteria and Archaebacteria
What domain is the Archaebacteria kingdom classified in?
Domain Archaea
What does the prefix staph mean? What does the prefix strep mean?
Staph- Cluster
Strep- Chain
What is the Capsule made up of?
It's made up of complex polysaccharides.
What are the three subgroups of Archaebacteria?
Extremophile, Halophile, and Thermophile
True or False: Organisms in kingdom Fungi reproduce both sexually and asexually and are autotrophic.
False
Where do methanogens usually live?
They usually live in areas with no oxygen, in the gut of an animal, and marshes. They produce methane gas.
What are the names of the 3 shapes of bacteria? How do they differ from each other?
Cocci, Bacilli, and Spirilla.
Cocci are spherical/round, Bacilli are rod-shaped, and spirilla are spirals
What are all of the parts of the bacteria cell? (there are ten)
Ribosomes, Cytoplasm, Nucleoid (DNA), Pili, Plasmid, Inclusion Bodies, Flagellum, Cytoplasmic (Cell) Membrane, Cell Wall, and Capsule.
What is the correct sequence for the Classification of life?
Life, Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
