The First Living Cell

Eukarya Organisms that have a nucleus in which they contain all their genetic information`.

Protista They can be either multi-cellular or unicellular. They are eukaryotic and have a nucleus, vacuole, and mitochondria.

Fungi-Like Fungi-like protists feed by absorbing nutrients from other living things. They cannot produce their own food, and most are decomposers.

Myxomycota

Myxogastria

Acrasiomycota

Mycetozoa

Oomycota

Peronosporales

Apicomplexa

Piroplasmida

Animal-Like These protists must move to ingest their food. They obtain it in two ways. 1. Halozoic, they engulf their food through endocytosis. 2. Saprozic, absorb predigested food.

Sarcodines & Ciliophora Sarcodines & Ciliophora use pseudopods to move from one place to another.

Paramecium Caudatum

Foraminifera Foraminifera move using psuedopods. They also use these thin-hair like cyto- plasm extensions to get their food.

Ammonia Tepida

Actinopoda Actinopoda also move using pseduopods. They use them to feed as well.

Heliozoa

Rhizopoda Rhizopoda move using pseudopods, and they also use them to engulf their food.

Amoeba Proteus

Plant-Like Plant-like protists feed by using their cilia to sweep food towards themselves. They also contain chloroplast and carry out photosynthesis to create food.

Pyrrophyta

Dinoflagellates

Chlorophyta

Prasinophyceae

Euglenophyta

Euglena Viridis

Rhodophyta

Coralline Algae

Chrysophyta

Green Algae

Phaeophyta

Kelp

Plantae Multi-cellular organisms that have a cell wall made of cellulose. They photosynthesize as they have chlorophyll a & b.

Angiosperms Angiosperms adapted to life on earth as they have a vascular system, seeds, and flowers. The flowers help them reproduce through pollination.

Anthophyta

Rose

Gymnosperms Gymnosperms adapted to life on earth as they have a vascular system that conserves water. The system is also used to transport nutrients and water.

Ginkgophyta

Maidenhair Tree

Gnetophyta

Melinjo

Cycadophyta

Sago Palm

Coniferophyta

Mountain Pine

Seedless Vascular As these plants do not have seeds, they spread through windblown spores, helping them adapting to new areas. This slowly led to some of them being able to adapt to more dry areas.

Lycophyta

Sigillaria

Pterophyta

Ostrich Fern

Bryophyta They adapted to life outside of water as they have a waxy cuticle which helps the plant from drying out.

Anthocerophyta

Hornwort

Hepaticophyta

Violet Crystalwort

Bryophyta

Mountain Fern Moss

Fungi Fungi can be either multi-cellular or unicellular. They are eukaryotes and heterotrophs (depend on other organisms for nutrients). They also do not photosynthesize as they are not plants.

Deuteromycota These are imperfect fungi. They can only reproduce asexually. This happens once asexual conidiospores are formed.

Parasitic

Basidiomycota These are club fungi. They reproduce sexually as two different mating strains are needed.

Club Fungi

Mushrooms

Ascomycota These are sac fungi. They can reproduce asexually or sexually. They tend to reproduce asexually through the budding of conidia.

Morels

Truffles

Yeast

Zygomycota These are common molds such as the mold that grows on bread. It can reproduce sexually or asexually using a process called "conjugation".

Bread Mold

Animalia Animals are heterotrophic and diploids. They are multi-cellular organisms. They usually develop from a zygote (excluding sponges)

Chordata Most complex animals as they are the first to develop and a large dorsal nerve cord and a backbone to protect the dorsal nerve cord.

Vertebrates

Gnathostomata

Mammalia Mammals adapted to life on earth due to their nervous system functions, backbone, a four chambered heart (which allows oxygen get to all places in the body faster), and more.

Placental Orders Placental mammals reproduce after mating. The fetus forms and stays within the placenta of the mother for a given amount of time. Placentals are superior to marsupials as they have a placenta which gives oxygen and nutrients to the fetus, whereas marsupials have no internal placenta.

Carnivora They walk on their toes, or flat feet like humans. Includes terrestrial, aquatic, and semi-aquatic species.

Giant Panda

Marsupials Mursupials reproduce by giving birth to a live but undeveloped fetus. This fetus then crawls into the mother's pouch and stays there for a given amount of time. Marsupials are superior to monotremes as they give live birth and monotremes lay eggs.

Diprotodontia Most have at least three pairs of incisors in their upper jaw. They do not have canine teeth either.

Red Kangaroo

Monotreme Monotremes are mammals that lay eggs through their cloaca after it is fertilized. Monotremes mate, and after mating

Monotremata They produce milk to feed their young, have hair, a single jaw bone, and three middle ear bones.

Platypus

Aves Aves adapted to life on earth as they have very lightweight bones which help them fly. They also have feather which help them fly.

Ruby-throated Hummingbird

Reptilia They adapted to life on earth as they no longer needed to rely on their skin to absorb oxygen. They have lungs which help them breathe on earth.

Sea Turtle

Amphibians Amphibians adapted to terrestrial life as their gills were replaced with lungs. They also adapted to skin that retains more moisture, and eyelids to help see outside water.

Poison Dart Frog

Osteichthyes

Cory Catfish

Agnathans

Chondrichthyes

Hammerhead Shark

Cephlochordates

Tunicates

Mollusca Mollusks are more complex as they are the first to have a well-developed excretory system.

Garden Snail

Enchinodermata These animals are more complex as they are deuterostomes, which means the first opening in the embryo becomes an anus.

Sea Cucumber

Arthropoda These animals are more complex as they have jointed appendages for quicker movement.

Hexapoda Their body is divided into a head, thorax, abdomen, uniramous appendages, and one pair of antennae.

Ectognatha

Protura

Insecta

Blue Morpho Butterfly

Chelicerates These animals have 2 body segments, and 6 pairs appendages.

Pycnogonida

Sea Spider

Merastomata

Horseshoe Crabs

Arachnida

Wolf Spider

Crustaceans These animals are characterized by having mandibles, compound eyes, and biramous appendages.

Ostracoda

Myodocopa

Branchiopoda

Annelida Annelids are more complex as they were the first to display segmentation. They also have a closed circulatory system.

Earthworm

Nematoda Nematods are more complex than Platyhelminthes as they the first to have a complete digestive tract. The development of a body cavity (coelom) forms to surround the digestive tract. Less complex animals have a sac.

Ascaridida

Platyhelminthes These animals are more complex than Cnidarians as they were the first to display bilateral symmetry. They were also the first to have a central nervous system.

Tricladida

Cnidera These animals are considered more complex than Porifera as they were the first to display radial symmetry.

Immortal Jellyfish

Porifera The least complex animal as they have no symmetry.

Calcareous Sponge

Archaea Microorganisms that resemble bacteria but have different genetic properties. Do not have a cell nucleus.

Archaebacteria Oldest organism's on Earth. They can inhabitant very hot, acidic, and salty conditions.

Thermophiles This bacteria can withstand extremely hot temperatures and/or acidic areas. They typically live in naturally formed hot springs.

Alicyclobacillus

Halophiles This bacteria tends to live in highly salty areas. For ex, the Dead Sea.
