Classification of Organisms

Prokaryotic

Do not have membrane bound organelles
Nor a well defined nucleus

Live in living and
non-living habitats

Unicellular

Can survive in extreme
climates

Example:
Hotsprings

Have a cell wall

DNA is double stranded

found in cytoplasm
of the cell

Nutrition:

Autotrophic

Make their own food

Chemosynthetic

Photosynthetic

Heterotrophic

Consumers

Parasyte

Saphropytes

Circulation is through diffusion

Move with the help of a flagella

Most reproduction is asexual

Two classes:

Eubacteria

Example:
Methanogens

Archaebacteria

Can be round, comma, rod-like or spiral

Eukaryotic

Well defined Cell
organelles & nucleus

Usually do not move

Non-vascular

Lack Vascular tissue

Reproduce
through spores

It is possible
for the spore to be
sexual and asexual

Can be unicellular
or made from fibers
known as hyphae

Example:
Mushroom

Have a cell wall

Made of chitin
not cellulose

Heteroptrophic

Consumers

Store their
food as starch

Saphrophytes
Parasites
Symbionts

Have very
small Nuclei

Produce Exoencxyme
during digestion

Example:
Yeast

Either sac, zygote,
imperfect or club
fungi

Found in water,
moist soil, or on
humans and plants

Example:
Algae

Plasmodium
causes malaria

They are simple
Eukaryotic Organisms

Well defined Cell
Organelles and
Nucleus

Movement
is through
flagella or cilia

All have mitochondria
& some have chloro-
plasts

Aren't plant,
animal or monera

Share characteristics
of all of the above

Can be either
Heterotrophs or
Autotrophs.

Some feed
through
Endocytosis

Reproduction
is either asexual
or sexual

Example:
Plasmodium

Eukaryotic

Well defined cell organelles
and nucleus

Heteroptrophic

Consumers

Have the ability to digest

Have no cell wall

Phylum is either
Vertebrates or
invertebrates

Chordata

Non-chordata

Example:
Centipedes

5 different classes of Vertebrates

Amphibia

Example:
Frog

Reptilia

Example:
Snake

Fish

Example:
Salmon

Aves

Example:
Eagle

Mammalia

Example:
Lion

All animals have many organ
systems

Have the ability to move

Most reproduce sexually

Are multicellular

Autotrophic

Make their own food

Photosynthesis

Most are Eukaryotic

Well- defined cell organelles and nucleus

Most contain Chlorophyll

Helps in Photosynthesis

Pigment found in Chloroplast
which isn't present in animal
cells

Multicellular

Have Cell Walls

Most are made of
Cellulose

Reproduce Sexually
and Asexually

Example:
Apple Tree,
Hydra

They lack the ability to move

Have organs
and organ
systems
