Taxonomy

• Prokaryotic (NO NUCLEUS)​

• ​Chemo-autotorophic (by chemicals, not sunlight like plants)

• ​Reproduction: Asexual, usually Binary Fission

• Unicellular or colonial​

• *Live in u​nusual environments!*

Archaea

• Prokaryotic (NO NUCLEUS)​

• ​Heterotrophic (a few chemo-autotrophs)

• ​Reproduction: Asexual, usually Binary Fission

• Unicellular or colonial

• Live in "normal" environments

Bacteria

• Eukaryotic(HAS NUCLEUS)​

• ​Autotroph or heterotroph

• ​Reproduction: Asexual, or sexual

• Usually unicellular rarely multicellular

• Typically need aquatic or moist environments.

Protista

• Eukaryotic(HAS NUCLEUS)​

• ​Heterotroph (many BUT NOT ALL are decomposers)

• ​Reproduction: Asexual, or sexual

• Parial lifecycle single cell and other part multicellular

• Typically terestrial

• Largest organism is a fungi!​

Fungi

• Eukaryotic(HAS NUCLEUS)​

• ​Autotroph

• ​Reproduction: Asexual, or sexual

• Multicellular

• Range of environments from aquatic to terestreal

Plantae

• Eukaryotic(HAS NUCLEUS)​

• Heterotroph

• ​Reproduction: Usually sexual, rarely asexual

• Multicellular

• We are part of this kingdom. So is Patric the starfish... (point is, its a big kingdom!)
