The Five Kingdoms
Prokaryotes
Have no nucleus
Loop of naked DNA (no chromosomes/ histone proteins), Non linear.
Have no membrane bound organelles
Have smaller ribosomes. (70s)
Carry out respiration in special membrane systems called mesesomes
Have smaller cells than eukaryotes
May be free living or parasitic, some cause diseases
Protoctists
are eukaryotes
mostly single-celled
Show a variety of forms
Show various plant or animal like features
are mostly free living
have autotrophic and heterotrophic nutrition
The only thing that they all have in common is that they don't fit into any of the other kingdoms.
Fungi
are eukaryotes
Have a body that consists of Mycelium, which is made of long strands called Hyphae
Have walls made of Chitin
Have cytoplasm that is multinucleate
are mostly free living saprophytic (cause decay of organic material)
Plants
Eukaryotes
Multicellular
Cellulose cell wall
produce multicellular embryos from fertilised egg.
Have autotrophic nutrition
Animals
Eukaryotes
multicellular
Hetrotrophic
have fertilised eggs that develops into a ball of cells called a blastula.
Usually able to move around
