Study Notes
Eukaryotic Kingdoms Overview
- Eukaryotic Kingdoms consist of Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.
- Protista has three subsections, illustrating its diversity.
Key Terms
- Blastula: A developmental stage in animals, characterized by a hollow sack of cells with internal fluid.
- Cellulose: A polysaccharide that forms the structural component of plant cell walls, providing rigidity and support.
Classification of Organisms
- Fungi are classified based on their structure and reproduction methods.
- Animalia Kingdom: Multicellular, heterotrophic organisms that lack cell walls, showcasing complex life forms.
- Fungi Kingdom: Composed of heterotrophic organisms that act as parasites and decomposers, playing a critical ecological role.
Reproduction
- Fungi can reproduce sexually and asexually, displaying a variety of reproductive strategies.
Plant Structure
- Pistil: The female reproductive part of a flower.
- Stamen: The male reproductive organ in flowers, consisting of the anther and filament.
- Petals: Serve the primary function of attracting pollinators to facilitate reproduction.
Lifecycle Differences
- Plantae Kingdom: Exhibits an alternating lifecycle between haploid and diploid cells, crucial for genetic diversity and adaptation.
- Differences between Plantae and Animalia: Distinguishable by plants being non-motile and autotrophic, while animals are motile and heterotrophic.
