• Emily Capote

2
Kingdoms

• Highest category in the traditional Linnaean
  system of classification.
• At this level, organisms are distinguished on the
  basis of cellular organization and methods of
  nutrition.
• Whether they are multiple or single celled,
  whether they ingest, absorb, or produce food are
  critical factors.

3
5 Types of Kingdoms

• 1. Monera
• 2. Protista
• 3. Fungi
• 4. Plantae
• 5. Animalia

4
Classifying Organisms, some organisms are listed
below

• Monera Bacteria, Blue-Green Algae
  (cyanobacteria), and spirochetes.
• Protista protozoans and algae of various types.
• Fungi funguses, molds, mushrooms, yeast,
  mildews, and smuts.
• Plantae mosses, ferns, woody and non woody
  plants.
• Animalia sponges, worms, insects, fish,
  amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals

Picture descriptions

• Monera Protista Fungi

6
Continuation.

• Plantae Animalia

7
Domains.

• The highest taxonomic rank (higher than kingdoms)
  of organisms in which there are 3 groupings.
• Archaea
• Bacteria
• Eukarya

8
Classification of Organisms

• Archaea single-celled microorganisms. These
  microbes have no cell nucleus or any other
  membrane-bound organelles within their cell.
• Bacteria contains most know pathogenic
  prokaryotic organisms
• Eukarya includes all of the organisms with
  eukaryotic cells.

9
How are organisms classified into kingdoms and
domains?

• Simply based on physical appearance and the
  ability to reproduce with members of the same
  "group"/species

10
How are organisms classified based on
evolutionary relationships?

• The science of classifying organisms based on
  their evolutionary relationships is referred to
  as cladistics.
• Phylogeny is the branch of biology that deals
  with phylogenesis. The proposed relationships
  between different types of organisms are
  displayed in diagrams called phylogenetic trees.
