Five kingdom system
method to organize living things
-begins at the largest level, Kingdom
-
3 categories that make up the Kingdom system
-Internal organization of cells
-Size of organism
-types of nutrition
-
(kingdom system) Internal organization of cells
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic
-
Prokaryotic (5)
-before nucleus
-lacks organelles
-most primitive life
-first to evolve here on Earth
ex) Kindom monera: bacteria
-
Eukaryotic (4)
-true nucleus
-has organelles
-evolved from prokaryotic cells
-most living organisms
-
(kingdom system) Size of organism (2)
- -unicellular or single celled
- *ex) kingdom protista: Protozoans, some algae, slime molds
-multicellular
-
(kingdom system) Types of nutrition (3)
