Studying Microorganisms in the Living State Flashcards
(42 cards)
created a new system of
classification for all living things.
Systema Naturae
Carl von Linné, or Carl Linnaeus
proposed a third
kingdom of life - Protista, and
included all unicellular
organisms in it.
Ernst Haeckel
difference of prokaryoted and eukaryotes
Édouard Chatton
seperate monera
2 empires-domain
4 kingdoms
Copeland
Proposed the 5th
Kingdom, Fungi
Robert Whittaker
right now
3 domains and 5 kingdoms
Carl Woese
2 new kingdoms
bacteria - eubacteria, archaeobacteria
eukarya- Chromista, protozoa, fungi, animalia, plantae
Thomas Cavalier-Smith (end of 2oth century)
(makes its own food)
Autotrophic
(feeds on other
living things),
heterotrophic
they can be classified as parasitic, saprophytic, and
symbiotic.
heterotrophic
(having only one cell)
Unicellular
multicellular
(having two or
more cells).
(the genetic material is surrounded by a membrane)
Eukaryotes
(lacking a membrane).
prokaryotes
(needs oxygen)
Aerobic
(does not use oxygen)
anaerobic
Reproduction of THE FIVE KINGDOMS OF LIVING THINGS
Sexual, asexual, or through spores.
Movement
Self-moving or static.
Most evolved and is divided into two
large groups - vertebrates and
invertebrates.
kingdom Animalia
Multi-celled, heterotrophic eukaryotes
with aerobic respiration, sexual
reproduction, and the ability to move.
kingdom Animalia
- one of the oldest
- characterized by its immobile,
multicellular, and eukaryotic nature - Autotrophic
- Cells contain cellulose and
chlorophyll are essential for life on
Earth since they release oxygen
through photosynthesis.
sexual or
asexual.
Kingdom Plantae
- includes yeasts, molds,mushrooms and toadstools.
- multicellular aerobic heterotrophic
eukaryotes - chitin in their cell walls, feed off
other living things-heterotrophic - reproduce through spores.
Kingdom Fungi
most primitive of the eucaryotic
Kingdom Protista
it contains the common
ancestor but not all its descendants -
and it includes those eukaryotic
organisms that are not deemed to be
animals, plants, or fungi such as
protozoa.
