    Study Notes

    Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes

    • Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
    • Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
    • Archaea are extreme prokaryotes.
    • Archaea are found in soil, wetlands, lakes, oceans, and ice.
    • Bacteria are prokaryotic cells.
    • Microbiota includes the community of microorganisms living in and on bodies.
    • Endotoxins result in sickness in humans.
    • Protists belong to domain Eukarya.
    • Protists are eukaryotic cells.

    Plants

    • Bryophytes, ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms are four main groups of plants.
    • Ferns are seedless vascular plants.
    • Gymnosperms are seed plants whose seeds develop directly on the scales of cones.
    • Angiosperms are flowering plants.
    • Lycophytes, ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms have lignin and a vascular system.

    Fungi

    • Yeast, cheese, black mold, and thrush are examples of fungi.
    • Hyphae are important for fungi.
    • Roots are a food source.
    • Phyla refer to classifications of animals.

    Animals

    • Invertebrates and vertebrates are animal groups.
    • Invertebrates and vertebrates show a large variety.
    • Insects are the most diverse group of eukaryotic organisms.
    • Autotrophs feed themselves.
    • Heterotrophs feed on others.
    • Pollution is a threat to biodiversity.
