CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING BEINGS
The science that orders and classifies living creatures
TAXONOMY
How many kingdoms are there?
FIVE
SAPROPHYTES
TRUE OR FALSE
All Protocists have eukaryotic cells.
TRUE
What makes up a virus?
These are the features that allow scientists to group together determined living things and distinguish them from others.
CLASSIFICATION CRITERIA
TRUE OR FALSE:
Plants and animals are unicellular.
FALSE.
They are multicellular.
What is produced when fungi reproduces sexually?
SPORES
This type of protozoa moves using pseudopodia.
RIZOPODS
Bacteria reproduces asexually by making a copy of its DNA and divides into two separate cells. What type of cellular division happens?
BINARY FISSION
Set of living beings which are physically similar and which can reproduce
SPECIES
Animals are autotrophic.
FALSE
They are heterotrophic.
What is the cellular wall of fungi made of?

BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE
Bacteria is an example of this kingdom
MONERA
When yeast does this, it transforms a certain substance into food such as bread, wine, and beer.
FERMENTATION
Name one structure multicellular algae have in common to plant organs.
BLADES ("LEAVES")
STIPE ("ROOTS")
HOLDFAST ("STEM")
Bacteria are autotrophs. One process uses solar energy and the other uses chemical reactions.
