Characteristics of Organisms

Kingdoms and Cell Count

100

When an organism consists of two or more cells we say the organism is this.

Multicellular

200

When an organism consists of only one cell, we say the organism is this.

Unicellular

300

Archae and bacteria, in terms of cell count would be classified as this.

Unicellular

400

Fungi can be classified in two categories with regard to cell count, what are these two categories.

Unicellular and Multicellular

500

We talked about 4 ways to classify organisms, one way was how many cells they have (unicellular- 1 vs multicellular- more than 1) what were the other THREE ways.  Be sure to tell me what they mean and then the two choices.

What they eat- heterotroph or autotroph

How they reproduce- asexual or sexual

Whether they have a nucleus and membrane bound organelles - prokaryotic or eukaryotic

Nutrition in the Kingdoms

100

Plants are called this because they make their own food.

Autotrophs

200

Animals are called this because they do not make their own food, instead they have to consume it from other organisms.

Heterotrophs

300

Archae and bacteria get their food by doing what?

Making it and finding it

400

Protists get their food by doing this.

Making it and finding it.

500

Autotrophs can make their food two ways, what are these two ways.

Photosynthesis and Chemosynthesis

Domain

100

Fungi fall into this domain.

Eukaryotic

200

Archae and bacteria fall into this domain.

Prokaryotic

300

This domain has organelles including a nucleus.

Eukaryotic

400

This domain does not have organelles nor a nucleus.

Prokaryotic

500

These two kingdoms are classified as Prokaryotic because they do not have a nucleus.  One of these kingdoms can be found in extreme environments and the other kingdom is considered primitive or ancient.
