organism consist of?
Genus species
7. Identify the kingdom each organism belongs
to.
1. Yeast Fungi
2. Maple tree Fungi
3. Mushroom Fungi
4. Lizard Animal
5. Paramecium Protists
6. Found in hot springs Archaebacteria
7. Moss Plants
8. Insect Animal
9. Amoeba Protists
10. Bacteria that causes strep throat Eubacteria
11. Algae
Protists
8. Explain the differences between a
kingdom and a species.
A kingdom is the largest level while species is
the smallest level.
A kingdom is made up of the largest number of
organisms while a species contains the
smallest number.
A kingdom consists of organisms that are not
very similar to each other while a species
consists of organisms that are most similar to
each other.
9. This kingdom’s
characteristics are very
simple. All of the organisms
are autotrophs, multicellular,
and eukaryotic.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Plant
10. This kingdom’s characteristics
include heterotrophs, eukaryotic
cells, and multicellular organisms.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Animal
11. This kingdom’s characteristics
include being unicellular, prokaryotic,
and both heterotrophic and autotrophic.
They are found in things like yogurt,
cheese, and in the throats of people
with strept throat.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Eubacteria
12. This kingdom’s characteristics
include being eukaryotic, heterotrophic,
and most being multicellular. Most of
these organisms live on land, and
include molds, mildews, and
mushrooms as species.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Fungi
Perognathus californicus
Perognathus nelsoni
Perognathus spinatus
13. a. What is the GENUS name of this group?
Perognathus
b. How many SPECIES are there in this
group?
3
c. What are the SPECIES names?
californicus, nelsoni, spinatus
14. In which group do all the
organisms belong to the same
kingdom?
1. Dog, mushroom, maple tree
2. Paramecium, ameba, euglena
3. Bacteria, ameba, rose
4. Bacteria, moss, lettuce
2
15. The diagrams above show single-celled organisms.
In the past, they were difficult to classify as either
plants or animals. Currently, these organisms are
classified as
1. worms
2. fungi
3. bacteria
4. protists
4
16. Acer saccharum is the scientific
name for the sugar maple tree. Acer
is the name of the tree's
1. genus
2. phylum
3. species
4. kingdom
1
17. In which group do all the organisms
belong to the same kingdom?
1. Yeast, mushroom, maple tree
2. Paramecium, ameba, algae
3. Bacteria, ameba, algae
4. Bacteria, moss, geranium
2
18. Most multicellular, autotrophs that
carry on photosynthesis belong to the
kingdom
a. Animals
b. Fungi
c. Eubacteria
d. Plants
d
19. Which is not true of Protista?
a. Some are autotrophs.
b. Some are heterotrophs.
c. They are prokaryotic.
d. An example is algae.
c
20. The kingdom that contains
prokaryotes is
a. Eubacteria
b. Protista
c. Fungi
d. Plants
e. All of these
a
21. The level of classification that
consists of organisms that are most
closely related is
a. Kingdom
b. Phylum
c. Genus
d. Species
d
22. Which kingdom consists of
organisms in which its genetic
information is found in the
cytoplasm?
a. Fungi
b. Archaebacteria
c. Protist
d. Plant
b
23. Organisms classified within my kingdom
get their food by feeding off of dead,
decaying matter. Most species in my group
are more than one cell big. Upon close
examination, all of our cells have a nucleus
inside to protect our chromosomes.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Fungi
24. Under a microscope, I am only one cell
big. Some species in my kingdom can
produce their own food, while others
cannot. None of the living things in my
group have nuclei in the middle of their
cells. We are used in producing many of
your favorite foods, but some of us can also
cause you to get very sick.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Eubacteria
25. My kingdom is full of organisms that
are made up of many cells. Each of
our cells have their own nuclei. We
cannot make our own food, and must
get our nourishment from outside
sources to stay alive.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Animal
26. I am only one cell big. When you look at me
under the microscope, I am missing a major part
called the nucleus. My nickname is “ancient,”
although my kingdom was just created by
scientists in recent years. I am capable of living in
very extreme conditions.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Archaebacteria
27. Our kingdom of living things is unique
because we can all make our own food
inside of our cells. When you look at our
cells under a microscope, you can see that
we have nuclei. All of the organisms in my
group are more than one cell big, and are
the basis of every food chain on Earth.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Plant
28. While most of the organisms in my
kingdom are only one cell big. All of us
have our own nuclei. When it comes to
food, some of us have to hunt while others
can make their own.
WHAT KINGDOM AM I?
Protist
