Tree of Life Notes

The Tree of Life represents the interconnectedness of all living things on Earth, illustrating how every organism, whether alive or extinct, shares an ancestral lineage. This project was undertaken to explore where we came from, the various branches of life, and how different organisms, including Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia, relate to one another. By understanding these relationships, we gain insight into the diversity of life and the shared origins that connect us all.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Tree of Life Notes Write two (2) sentences about the tree of life? Why did we do this project? What does it represent?

  2. Tree of Life Notes • The concept of a tree of life, a many-branched tree illustrating the idea that all life on earth is related, has been used in science, religion, philosophy, mythology, and other areas.

  3. Tree of Life Notes Every single organism (alive or extinct) has an ancestral path back to the ancestral replicator. WHERE DID WE COME FROM?

  4. Tree of Life Notes Every single organism (alive or extinct) has an ancestral path back to the ancestral replicator. WHERE DID WE COME FROM?

  5. Tree of Life Notes The Six Kingdoms of Life: 1. Eubacteria 2. Archaebacteria 3. Protista 4. Fungi 5. Plantae 6. Animalia

  6. Tree of Life Notes Eubacteria  “True Bacteria” – single-celled organisms without a nucleus. What is a nucleus?

  7. Tree of Life Notes Archaebacteria  Extremeophiles – single celled, live in very extreme environments.

  8. Tree of Life Notes Protista  Single-celled (most), eukaryotic organisms. They have a nucleus.

  9. Tree of Life Notes Fungi  Multi-cellular organisms that feed on dead, decaying organisms

  10. Tree of Life Notes Plantae  Multi-cellular organisms that produce their own food via photosynthesis.

  11. Tree of Life Notes Animalia  Multi-cellular organisms that obtain energy from consuming other organisms.

  12. Tree of Life Notes Every branch of life seems so different, so how can they be connected?

  13. ONE PAGE PAPER – • WHAT IS THE TREE OF LIFE? • WHAT ARE THE BRANCHES ON THE TREE OF LIFE? • WHAT DOES IT REPRESENT FOR LIVING THINGS?
