Study Notes
Classification of Life
- Study of classification is known as Taxonomy.
- Life is organized into 5 Kingdoms: Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia.
Monera
- Organisms in this kingdom typically reproduce asexually.
Protista
- Protists are primarily found in environments where water is present.
- Two examples of protists include Amoeba and algae.
Fungi
- Examples of fungi include mushrooms, mildews, molds, and yeasts.
- Fungal structures called Hyphae consist of one or more cells surrounded by a tubular cell wall.
- The cell wall of fungi is primarily made of the carbohydrate chitin.
Plantae
- Seed-producing plants are categorized into flowering and non-flowering plants.
- Plants are multicellular organisms with cell walls composed of cellulose.
- Plants are classified as eukaryotic, meaning they have complex cells with a nucleus.
Animalia
- Animals are also classified as multicellular organisms.
- Reproduction in animals typically occurs sexually.
