---|---|---|---|---|
What is Kingdom Animalia?
Organisms in this group are heterotrophs that ingest their nutrients and are highly mobile.
|
What is Eukarya?
A domain containing eukaryotic cells.
|
What are chloroplasts?
These organelles are the site of photosynthesis.
|
What is a kingdom?
Second highest level in the taxonomic hierarchy.
|
What is oxen?
Ox
|
What is Kingdom Plantae?
The organisms in this group contain eukaryotic autotrophs that perform photosynthesis.
|
What are Bacteria and Archaea?
Organisms in these domains are unicellular and lack chloroplasts and mitochondria.
|
What is a heterotroph?
An organism that obtains its nutrition from other sources.
|
What is a domain?
Highest level of the taxonomic hierarchy; includes three groups: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya.
|
What is moose?
Moose
|
What is Kingdom Archaea (Archaebacteria)?
The members of this kingdom were first found living in very extreme environments and include theromophiles and halophiles.
|
What is Eukarya?
A domain containing kingdoms Protista and Fungi.
|
What are heterotrophs?
Fungi that absorb their nutrients are an example of these.
|
What is species?
This is the most specific taxonomic level. An example includes homo sapiens (humans).
|
What is cacti?
Cactus
|
What is Kingdom Fungi?
Kingdom of heterotrophic eukaryotes that reproduce through asexual spores; a mushroom for example.
|
What is Bacteria?
Organisms in this domain have circular DNA, can only reproduce asexually and are microscopic; examples include E. Coli and Salmonella.
|
What are autotrophs?
Plants that make their own food are known as this.
|
What is Protista?
The taxonomic level kingdom contains six groups: Archaea, Bacteria, Plantae, Fungi, Animalia and this group.
|
What is stimuli?
Stimulus
|
What is Kingdom Protista?
Organisms in this kingdom are highly varied and can be unicellular or multicellular, autotrophic or heterotrophic.
|
What is Archaea?
Members of this domain contain unicellular prokaryotes that cannot perform photosynthesis, only produce asexually, and cannot produce spores.
|
What is Bacteria?
Members of this domain are autotrophs and heterotrophs and can obtain nutrients through photosynthesis, chemosynthesis, decomposing of dead organisms and wastes, and establishing mutualistic and parasitic relationships.
|
What is binomial nomenclature?
This is the system Carolus Linnaeus developed for naming organisms.
|
What is spacecraft?
Spacecraft
