    Study Notes

    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.
