Domains and Kigdoms

Cards (18)

  • What are the three domains?
    Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya
  • These kingdoms are both prokaryotic cells. They are both unicellular and have no nucleus.
    Archaea and Bacteria
  • This kingdom lacks a cell wall.
    Kingdom Animalia
  • What are the kingdoms under Eukarya:
    Animalia, Protista, Plantae, Fungi
  • Unlike bacteria and archaea, this domain is purely eukaryotic, which means that it has a true nucleus and mostly has multicellular organisms
    Eukarya
  • Classifications of Kingdom Animalia:
    Vertebrates, Invertebrates
  • All creatures belong to the Vertebrata subphylum and are members of the Chordata phylum and has a backbone.
    Vertebrates
  • Animals that have mammary gland and are capable of producing their own milk, nourishing their young.
    Mammalia
  • They are ectothermic and is capable of living in both land and water.
    Amphibians
  • 1866: two kingdoms (Animalia and Plantae)
    1866: all single-celled organisms moved to kingdom Protista
    1938: prokaryotes moved to kingdom Monera
    1959: fungi moved to their own kingdom of Fungi
    1977: Kingdom monera split into kingdom Bactera and Aranchae
  • includes diverse groups of multicellular eukaryotic organism that primarily carry out photosynthesis to produce their own food.
    Plantae
  • Examples of plants
    1. Oak tree (Quercus)
    2. Rose (Rosa)
    3. Fern (Polypodium)
    4. Moss (Bryophyta)
    5. Cactus (Cactaceae)
    6. Fern Ally (Selaginella)
  • A eukaryotic creature that thrives in watery settings and is generally tiny in size. They are mostly unicellular which means that the entire organism is made up of just one cell.
    Protista Kingdom
  • The protists include algae, protozoa, slime molds, and ciliates.
  • What are the sub phylums of Chordata:
    - Urochordata
    - Cephalochordata
    - Vertebrata
  • Classifications of kingdom monera:
    1. Eubacteria
    2. Achaebacteria
    3. Cyanobacteria
  • 10 Phylums:
    1. Porifera
    2. Coelenterata
    3. Platyhelminthes
    4. Nematoda
    5. Annelida
    6. Arthropoda
    7. Mollusca
    8. Echinodermata
    9. Hemichordata
    10. Chordata
  • Hierarchy or the Sequence of Taxonomy:
    1. Domain
    2. Kingdom
    3. Phylum
    4. Class
    5. Order
    6. Family
    7. Genus
    8. Species
