2. The 6 Kingdoms Domain Archea Kingdom Archea Domain Eubacteria Kingdom Eubacteria Domain Eukarya Kingdom Protista Kingdom Fungi Kingdom Plantae Kingdom Animalia

3. Kingdom Archaea Cell Type: Archaea are prokaryotes without a nucleus in the cell. Body structure : Archaea are single-celled organisms ,but they are sometimes found in colonies . Food: Archaea are autotrophic(make their own food). They use chemical synthesis to make food. Reproduction: Archaea reproduce asexually, using binary fission Example Organisms: Some examples are Acidianus hospitalis and Methanococcus jannaschii. Fun facts: Archaea have been found in extreme environments like volcanic vents, geysers, and deep in the ocean.

4. Kingdom Eubacteria Cell Type: Eubacteria are prokaryotic cells(no nucleus). Body Structure: Eubacteria are single-celled organisms. Food: Eubacteria are both auto- and heterotrophic. When they are autotrophic, they use both chemical synthesis and photosynthesis. Reproduction: Eubacteria use asexual reproduction by binary fission. Fun facts: Eubacteria can be found in the human body and are especially important for digestion. Example Organisms : Some example bacteria are E.coli , H.pylori, and L.acidopilus.

5. Kingdom Protista Cell Type: Protists are eukaryotic cells (nucleus and membrane bound organs). Body Structure: Protists are single-celled, and simple multi-celled. Food: Protists can be autotrophic or heterotrophs. Reproduction Asexual binary fission multiple fission Sexual Conjugation Example Organisms: Some examples of protists are slime molds, algae, amoebas, protozoa, and water molds. Fun Facts: Protists can have traits of plants, animals, and fungi.

6. Kingdom Fungi Cell Type: Fungi have eukaryotic cells (have a nucleus). Body Structure : Fungi are complex multicellular organisms. Their cells have cell walls. Food: Fungi are decomposers. They break down other organisms and absorb the nutrients. Examples: Some examples of fungi are Hygrocybe calyptriformis (pink waxcap fungus) and Gomphus clavatus (Pig's Ear fungus). Fun Facts: Some medicines, such as Penicillin, are made from fungi. Reproduction Asexual Fragmentation Spores spread by the wind Sexual Spores join sexual cells in the fungus.

7. Kingdom Plantae Cell Type: Plants have eukaryotic cells. Body Structure: Plants are complex multicellular organisms with cell walls and chlorophyll. Food: Plants are autotrophic; they make their food using photosynthesis. Photosynthesis uses the sun as a food source. Reproduction: Plants usually reproduce sexually through the process of pollination. A few, such as mosses and ferns, reproduce asexually using spores. Exa mple Organisms: Some plants are trees, grass, ferns, flowers, and many others. Fun Facts: Some plants, especially trees, can live for hundreds or even thousands of years!

8. Kingdom Animalia Cell Type: Animals have eukaryotic cells. Body Structure: Animals are complex multicellular organisms. Some are vertebrates (have backbones) and some are invertebrates (no backbone). Food: All animals are heterotrophic. Most are consumers, but some are decomposers. Reproduction: Almost all animals reproduce sexually. Example Organisms: There are many different species of animals. Some are humans, beetles, sea anemones, monkeys, rabbits, and dogs. Fun Facts: Many animals have specialized sense organs.
