Classification - Kingdoms

Question 1

What is the process called where organisms are put into groups based on what they look like?

Answer 1

Classification

Question 2

What are the five kingdoms of organisms?

Answer 2

Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protoctista and Prokaryotae

Question 3

If some organisms are unicellular, what does it mean?

Answer 3

They have single cells

Question 4

If some organisms are multicellular, what does this mean?

Answer 4

It means they are made of many cells

Question 5

How do plants make their food?

Answer 5

Autotrophically using photosynthesis

Question 6

How do animals feed?

Answer 6

Animals feed heterotrophically by eating and digesting other organisms

Question 7

So if plants make their food autotrophically using photosynthesis and animals feed heterotrophically by eating and digesting other organisms, how do fungi get their food?

Answer 7

Fungi get their food by digesting other organisms, but do this outside the body and our said to feed SAPROPHYTICALLY

Question 8

What are the main characteristics of the Animalia kingdom?

Answer 8

Multicellular
Heterotrophic feeders, which means they have no chlorophyll
No cell walls
Complex wall structure with nucleus

Question 9

What are the main characteristics of the Plantae kingdom?

Answer 9

Multicellular
Autotrophic feeders which means they USE chlorophyll
They have cells walls made of cellulose
They have the same as Animalia as they have a complex cell structure with nucleus

Question 10

What are the main characteristics of Fungi?

Answer 10

Multicellular
Saprophytic feeders so they have NO chlorophyll
Cell walls NOT made of cellulose
Again, complex cell structure with nucleus

Question 11

What are the main characteristics of Protoctista?

Answer 11

Unicellular

Again, complex cell structure with nucleus

Question 12

Finally, what are the main characteristics of Prokaryotae?

Answer 12

Unicellular

Simple cell structure with NO Nucleus

Question 13

Answer 13
