|---|
| animals | members of the kingdom animalia are multicellular, eukaryotic, heterotrophs whose cells lack cell walls |
| Archaea | kingdom and domain of organisms that live in extreme environments |
| classification | the process of grouping things based on their similarities |
| domain | the broadest level of taxanomic groups, larger than kingdom, three exist arhea, eubacteria, eukaryota |
| Eubacteria | prokaryotic organisms that are the most abundant in the world |
| fungi | kingdom composed of multicellular heterotrophs, that are decomposers |
| kingdom | second larges taxonomic group; there are six: animalia, plantae, protista eubacteria, archaebacteria, fungi |
| plantae | kingdom: multicellular, autotrophic,eudaryote with tissues and organs that have specialized structures and functions |
| protista | kingdom of eukaryotic organisms that are mostly unicellular, autotrophic or heterotrophic, and include organisms that cause malaria |
| taxonomy | the scientific study of how living things are classified |
| cell | Smallest unit of structure and function of living things. |
| Organism | any living thing |
| cell theory | all cells come from other cells |
| unicellular | organism made of one cell |
| multicellular | organism made of two or more cells |
| organelle | Small body in the cell's cytoplasm that has a specialized function. |
| nucleus | The control center of the cell that is bound by a membrane and contains DNA. |
| cell membrane | A layer that covers the cell's surface and acts as a barrier between the cell and its environment |
| cytoplasm | Jello-like substance inside the cell that holds the organelles and other structures |
| prokaryote | A cell that has no nucleus or membrane bound organelles |
| eukaryote | A cell that contains a membrane bound nucleus. |
| autotroph | An organism that makes its own food. |
| heterotroph | An organism that cannot make its own food and must depend on other organisms for energy. |
| asexual reproduction | Reproduction that involves only 1 parent and produces identical offspring. |
| sexual reproduction | Produces offspring that are similar to the parents. |
| athlete's foot | an example of an infectious organism from kingdom fungi |
| eukaryota | domain of protista, fungi, plantae, and animalia kingdoms |
| streptococcus | example of an infectious organism in kingdom eubacteria |
| red algae | example of beneficial fungi - gummy bears! |
