  1. 18-3 Kingdoms and Domains

  2. The Tree of Life Evolves • Organisms originally grouped as either plant or animal • Scientists realized that bacteria, protists and fungi were quite different from plant and animal groupings

  3. Tree of Life Evolves • Bacteria and protists were placed in the kingdom Protista • Fungus, yeasts and molds placed in kingdom Fungi

  4. Tree of Life Evolves • Realized bacteria lacked nuclei and organelles • Regrouped into kingdom Monera

  5. Tree of Life Evolves • This process lead to 5 kingdoms: • Monera • Protista • Fungi • Plantae • Animalia

  6. Tree of Life Evolves • In recent years, it has been discovered that bacteria fit into 2 distinct categories • Monera has been broken into: • Archaebacteria (ancient bacteria) • Eubacteria (new bacteria

  7. The Three Domain System • Domain is a more inclusive category than kingdom • Three domains: • Eukarya: includes protists, fungi, plants, and animals • Bacteria: includes kingdom Eubacteria • Archaea: includes kingdom Archaebacteria

  8. Domain Bacteria • Members of domain bacteria are unicellular and prokaryotic • Have thick, rigid cell walls around cell membrane • Cell wall contains peptidoglycan

  9. Domain Bacteria • Ecologically diverse – free-living soil organisms to deadly parasites • Some photosynthesize others don’t • Some need oxygen, others killed by it

  10. Domain Archaea • Unicellular and prokaryotic • Live in most extreme environments • Hot springs, brine pools, and black organic mud • Many only live in anaerobic environments • Cell walls lack peptidoglycan

  11. Domain Eukarya • Consists of all organisms that have a nucleus • Composed of kingdoms: • Protista • Fungi • Plantae • Animalia

  12. Protista • Eukaryotic organisms that can’t be classified as plant, animal, or fungi • Members have great variety • Most are single-celled, multicellular algae

  13. Protista • Photosynthetic or heterotrophic • Some have characteristics of fungi • Others characteristics of plants • Others characteristics of animals • Examples: amoeba, paramecium

  14. Fungi • Heterotrophs • Feed on dead or decaying organic matter • Secrete digestive enzymes into food, and absorb molecules through bodies • Multicellular (mushrooms) and unicellular (yeasts)

  15. Plantae • Multicellular • Photosynthetic autotrophs • Nonmotile (don’t move) • Cell walls that contain cellulose • Contains cone-bearing and flowering plants, mosses and ferns

  16. Animalia • Multicellular and heterotrophic • Do not have cell walls • Most can move about for at least part of their life cycle • Great diversity, live in nearly every part of planet
