Eukaryotic Kingdoms

Four main eukaryotic kingdoms: Animals, Plants, Fungi, and Protists.

Protists

Protists are unicellular eukaryotes.
They exhibit significant diversity among species.
Can be heterotrophic (consuming other organisms) or autotrophic (producing their own food).

Fungi

Fungi can be unicellular or multicellular eukaryotes.
Their cell walls are primarily composed of chitin.
All fungi are heterotrophs, absorbing nutrients through decomposition.
Fungi grow by digesting food externally before consumption.

Animals

Animals are exclusively multicellular eukaryotes.
They lack a cell wall, allowing a range of complex structures and functions.
Animals are heterotrophic, obtaining energy by consuming other organisms.

Plants

Plants are also multicellular eukaryotes.
Their cell walls are made from cellulose, providing structure and rigidity.
Plants are autotrophs, capable of photosynthesis to create their own food using sunlight.

Nutritional Categories

Heterotrophs: Organisms that obtain food by consuming others (animals and fungi).
Autotrophs: Organisms that produce their own food (primarily plants).

Relationship Between Groups

Animals and fungi share a close evolutionary relationship, indicating similarities in their biological processes and structures.
