Bacteria Archaea Eukarya
Found everywhere
Autotrophs & Heterotrophs
Prokaryotes---lack nucleus
Ancient
Found in Extreme Environments
Unicellular
Prokaryotes/no nucleus
Found Everywhere
Autotrophs & Heterotrophs
Eukaryotes---Nucleus
Placed into domains and kingdoms based on cell type, ability to make food,
number of cells in their bodies.
NucleusDense area in a cell that contains nucleic acids---chemical instructions that direct cell’s activities
Dense area in cell containing nucleic acids---Chemical instructions that directs cells activities.
Domain EukaryaEukaryotic organism---cannot be classified as animal, plant or fungus---most unicellular---few multicellular—some autotrophs other heterotrophs.
Multicellular eukaryotes. All heterotrophs
Multicellular eukaryotes—most live on land----autotrophs---provide food for heterotrophs
Multicellular eukaryotes—live everywhere---hetertrophs
Homo sapiens
YES!!!
Eukaryotic Cells
UCells of your body have a nucleus
