plants, animals, fungi

• what type of organisms are eukaryotic

  plants, animals, fungi, protoctists
• what types of organisms are prokaryotic

  bacteria
• what type of organism is not living

  virus
• eukaryotic organisms/ cells


  complex and contain a nucleus
• prokaryotic cells/ organisms


  smaller and simpler + dont contain a nucleus
• which organisms are multicellular

  plants, animals
• which organisms are single-celled

  fungi, bacteria, protoctists
• plants

  multicellular, contain chloroplasts meaning they can photosynthesise, have cell walls made of cellulose (to strengthen+provide a rigid structure), STORE CARBOHYDRATES AS SUCROSE/ STARCH
• why are plants' cell walls made of cellulose


  to strengthen and provide a rigid structure for cell
• what do plants store carbohydrates as

  sucrose/ starch
• example of multicellular plants

  flowering plants eg: cereals(maize), herbaceous legumes (peas)
• animals 


  multicellular, some have nervous coordination- meaning they can respond quickly to changes in environment , CANT PHOTOSYNTHESISE, can move around from one place to another, STORE CARBOHYDRATES AS GLYCOGEN
• how do animals store carbohydrates

  in form of glycogen
• how do animals differ from plants

  they dont have chloroplasts so cant photosynthesise, their cells dont have cell walls, they dont contain a vacuole
• examples of multicellular animals

  mammals(humans), insects (mosquitos)
• fungi


  SOME are SINGLE-CELLED, have a body called mycelium which is made up of hyphae(thread-like structures containing lots of nuclei), have cell walls made of chitin, CANT PHOTOSYNTHESISE, feed by saprotrophic nutrition, STORE CARBOHYDRATES AS GLYCOGEN
• what does the hyphae that makes up the mycelium in fungi contain lots of

  nuclei
• what is saprotrophic nutrition in fungi

  they secrete extracellular enzymes into area outside body to dissolve food so they can absorb the nutrients
• what are fungi's walls made of

  chitin
• examples of single-celled fungi

  yeast (single-celled fungus)
• example of multicellular fungus

  mucor (still contains mycelium and hyphae)
