- 1Prokaryotic cellA cell that lacks a membrane bound nuclues
- 2Eukaryote CellA cell that possess a membrane bound nucleus.
- 3AutotrophsMake nutrients from inorganic materials (like plants)
- 4HeterotrophsOrganisms that get nutrients by consuming other organisms.
- 5What are the three domains of life?Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya
- 6The Domain BacteriaUnicellular prokaryotes with no internal composition and have a strong cell wall. They are both autotrophs and heterotrophs.
- 7The domain ArchaeaUnicellular prokaryotes with a cell wall and membrane. They are both heterotrophs and autotrophs.
- 8The domain EukaryaComposed of the domains Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.They are unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes. They have a highly organized cell interior and can sexually reproduce.
- 9Kingdom and domain chart
- 10What are the six Kingdoms? (and what domain do they pertain to?)Eubacteria, Archae-bacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantea, and Animalia
- 11Colonial organismA group of cells that are permanently associated but do now communicate with each other
- 12AggregationA temporary group of cells that come together for a period of time and then separate
- 13Multicellular organismA organism that is composed of many cells that are permanently associated with one another. Can only occur in eukaryotes.
- 14DifferentiationThe process by which cells develop a a specialized form and function.
- 15TissueA distinct group of cells with similar structure and function.
- 16OrganMade up of different tissues that carry out a major function.
- 17Organ systemVarious organ that carry out a major body function.
- 18Kingdom ProtistsAre eukaryotes that are not fungi, plants, or animalia. They are a very diverse group.
- 19Kingdom FungiAre mostly multicellular. Are heterotrophs.
- 20Kingdom PlantaeMulticellular autotrophs with specialized cells and tissues.
- 21Kingdom AnimaliaComplex multicellular heterotrophs. Lack cell walls and are organized in tissues. They can reproduce sexually.
