The document discusses the 5 Kingdoms - Bacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. It provides details about the evolution, development, homeostasis, energy acquisition, and reproduction methods within each kingdom. The kingdoms range from single-celled prokaryotes like bacteria to multicellular eukaryotes like plants and animals. Each kingdom has unique traits that allow organisms to survive and reproduce.

2. Kingdom Bacteria
• Evolution:
– Bacteria were the 1st organisms on earth.
Other cells may have evolved from bacteria
• Development:
– Singled celled = unicellular (sometimes
come in groups
– Prokaryotes = no nucleus
– Variety of sizes

5. Kingdom Bacteria
• Homeostasis: Cell wall called capsule for
protection
• Continuity: Reproduce by splitting
– Asexually - Called “binary fission”
• Ecology: Bacteria are EVERYWHERE!
– They interact with everything

7. Protista Kingdom
• EX: brown and red algae, diatoms,
cillitates, slime molds
• Energy: Have chloroplast organelle for
photosynthesis
– Autotrophs = make own food

9. Protista Kingdom
• Development:
– Single celled (BUT can grow in colonies)
– Eukaryotes – have a nucleus
• Continuity:
– Asexual reproduction
– Sexual reproduction

10. Protista Kingdom
• Ecology:
– Live in wet areas
– Interactions will all living organisms, including
you!
– Plasmodium Malaria

11. Kingdom Fungi
• Evolution: Evolved to be multicellular =
many cells
• Homeostasis: Have cell wall
• Energy:
– Decomposers = release enzymes into
environment to break down dead material
– ALSO heterotrophs = consumers

12. Kingdom Fungi
• Continuity: Sexual reproduction
– Spores released into air

13. Kingdom Fungi
• Development: Have special cells called
hyphae  aids in water/nutrient
absorption
• EX: Mushrooms,
– Yeast, molds

14. Plantae Kingdom
Homeostasis:
– Has rigid cell wall
Evolution: 1st multicellular organism
More cells = more complex.
• Energy:
– Chloroplast – photosynthetic
– Autotrophs – make own food

16. Plantae Kingdom
• Continuity:
– Sexual reproduction: cross pollination
– Asexual reproduction: self-fertilization
– EX: Trees, flowers, grass, moss, lichen (land
and water)

18. Kingdom Anamalia
• Evolution: We are the most advance and
evolved kingdom!
• Homeostasis:
– Human = shiver, sweat
– Animals have skin, fur, scales
– Dogs = pant when it’s hot
– Reptiles = cold blooded

20. Kingdom Animalia
• Energy: Consumers – we eat other
organisms
• Continuity: Sexual reproduction
– Embryos
– Fish or bird eggs OR live babies
