The 6 Kingdoms
Of
Living Things
Important Terms to
Compare



Prokaryotic (no
nucleus or membrane
bound organelles) vs.
Eukaryotic cell
(nucleus and
organelles)
Heterotrophic (gets
food from other source
vs. Autotrophic(makes
own food )
Asexual (1 parent)vs.
sexual (2 parent)
reproduction
Important Terms, cont.


Multicellular vs. single or unicellular
Types of multicellular existance
1. Colonial organization—group of cells
that are permanently associated, but do not
communicate with each other.
Volvox sp.
Multicellular, cont.
2. Aggregations—a temporary collection
of cells that come together for a short time
and then separate.
Plasmodial slime
mold—when starved
they come together to
produce spores which
can be dispersed to
distant locations.
Multicellular, cont.

3. True Multicellular—cells that are
permanently associated.

This phylogenetic tree, based on
rRNA sequences, demonstrates the
division of all living things into three
broad domains.


Cell Type: Prokaryotic
Cell Structure: Cell walls without
peptidoglycan.
Body type: Unicellular
Nutrition: Usually autotrophic, but
may be heterotrophic.
Other: Live in extreme
environments: hot, salt, high
acidity, very alkaline
Other: Reproduction by binary
fission
