    Six Kingdoms Chart T 2

    Angelo D Peralta
    The document presents a chart comparing the six kingdoms - Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia - based on their key characteristics. The kingdoms are grouped into five categories: cell type (prokaryotic or eukaryotic), cellular organization (number of cells and level of organization), cell wall composition, mode of nutrition (autotrophic or heterotrophic), and method of reproduction (asexual or sexual) and motility. The chart is intended to set the content to be covered in a Six Kingdoms unit and limit teaching/testing to these fundamental concepts that distinguish the kingdoms.

    This chart sets the content to be covered in the Six Kingdoms Unit. Limit your content for teaching/testing purposes to these concepts.

    The six kingdoms are grouped according to five major categories in addition to other major characteristics. The categories are:
    I.

    CELL TYPE: (kind of cell) all cells are made of the same organic material)
    A. PROKARYOTIC: no organized nucleus, no internal membranes, peptidoglycan cell wall, have ribosomes (small), bacteria and bluegreen algae
    B. EUKARYOTIC: organized nucleus, internal membranes, nonpeptidoglycan cell wall

    II. CELLULAR ORGANIZATION:


    A. NUMBER OF CELLS
    1. UNICELLULAR: (single-celled) all life functions, solitary or colonial (chains or clumps)
    2. MULTICELLULAR: (many-celled)
    a. hyphae body form
    b. tissue differentiation (limited to advanced organisms)
    B. LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION (Tissue Differentiation)
    1. cells, 2. tissues, 3. organs, 4. organ system, 5. organism
    C. CELL WALL
    1. PEPTIDOGLYCAN: contain peptidoglycan, a complex web-like molecule; found only in the Eubacteria
    2. UNCOMMON LIPIDS: nonpeptidoglycan, contains uncommon lipids, found only in Archaebacteria
    3. PECTIN: contain pectin a complex polysaccharide, found in most Protista
    3. CELLULOSE: contain cellulose a complex polysaccharide; found in Plantae
    3. CHITIN: contain chitin, a tough material like that making up crab shells; found only in the Fungi
    III. MODE OF NUTRITION (how obtain energy/gets food)
    A. AUTOTROPHIC: make own food, contain chlorophyll (photosynthetic), (some without chlorophyll are chemotrophic)
    B. HETEROTROPHIC: get food from other organism, no chlorophyll, ingestion or absorption (free living, parasitic, saprophytic)
    IV. Method of REPRODUCTION
    A. ASEXUAL: only one parent, offspring genetically identical to parent, no union of gametes
    B. SEXUAL: two parents, offspring genetically different from parents (a combination of the two), union of gametes
    V. MOTILITY
    A. MOTILE: ability to move from place to place, may only be motile in larval stage
    B. NONMOTILE: cannot move from place to place, maybe sessile (attached to a surface)
