Study Notes

Classification of Organisms

Living organisms are categorized into taxonomic kingdoms of life.
The most basic category for organisms is a kingdom.
Most scientists divide organisms into five major kingdoms.
Prokaryotic organisms (bacteria and blue-green algae) are single-celled, without a nucleus.
Eukaryotic organisms are single or multicellular, containing a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
Archaebacteria and Eubacteria are prokaryotic.
Eubacteria contain simple multicellular or unicellular organisms
Protista includes simple multicellular or unicellular organisms, exhibiting either autotrophic or heterotrophic nutrition.
Plantae are multicellular, autotrophic organisms (photosynthesis), characterized by absorptive nutrition.
Fungi are multicellular, heterotrophic organisms (absorptive nutrition).
Animalia are multicellular, heterotrophic organisms (ingestive nutrition).
