Six Kingdom Classification 2

• eukaryotes


  what class of cell is a fungi?
• chitin


  What is a fungi's Cell wall made of? (it is a carbohydrate)

  (same compound as the exoskeleton of insects!!!!!)
• The body of fungi is made of filaments called hyphae.
• Fungi reproduce using spores.
• multicellular: mushrooms, molds
• unicellular: yeast
• heterotrophs: decomposers, some parasites
• Penicillium notatum 


  • makes Penicillin (antibiotic)
  • Grows naturally in some fruits oranges
• Penicillium roquefortii 


  is used to make blue cheeses: Roquefort, Gorgonzola, Stilton, etc.
• Saccharomyces cerevisiae 


  Yeast used to make bread, wine, beer.
• Yeasts use sugars as a source of energy during respiration.
• Lichens


  Symbiotic relationship between a fungus and a photosynthetic organism:
• BRYOPHYTES, Vascular Spore-forming, Vascular Seed forming


  Types of Plants:
• Bryophytes


  • The group of the non vascular plants
  • lack vascular tissues that transport materials( food and water) throughout the entire plant body
  • equipped with tissues that can transport food and water to the different parts of the plant body
• Vascular spore-forming


  • The earliest vascular plant.
  • Their drought-resistant spores enable them to extend their geographic range.
  • The spore bearing structure range in size and type - maybe cone-like called strobilus.
  • Their bodies are anchored to the soil by underground rhizomes.
• Vascular seed-forming

  • The presence of woody tissues that enable them to grow in size ,
  • a more complex vascular tissue that can transport water and nutrients to greater heights; and embryos that are enclosed in a structure called seeds.
• Gymnosperms


  Plants that bear “naked seeds” or seeds that are not produced within the ovary instead they are borne on the surface of reproductive structures called the cones.
• Angiosperms


  • The plants that produce seeds enclosed in an ovary that eventually develops into a fruit.
  • They are considered the most numerous and diverse form of plants.
• dorsal tubular nerve cord


  string that extends throughout the entire length of the animal’s body
• notochord 


  is a flexible longitudinal rod that supports the animal and allows it to execute some movements
• pharengeal slits 


  are a series of openings that may be used for filter feeding and gaseous exchange
• post- anal tail 


  extends posteriorly beyond the anal opening and may be supported by a notochord or a vertebral column.
• chordates 


  have bony or cartilaginous vertebrae that replace the notochord partially or completely as the organism grows and develop
