Living Organisms

Living Organisms • Living Organisms are formed by one cell (unicellular), or many cells (multicellular). • They can be very tiny (microscopic), or very big (macroscopic). • They can make their own food (autotrophs), or they can get it from other living organisms (heterotrophs). • Sometimes they have disappeared by cataclismic events (massive extinctions). • They can have significant anatomical and behavioral changes (evolution) over long periods of time. • And there are hundreds of millions of different species of living organisms.

Kingdom MONERA

MONERA
• The Kingdom MONERA, is sometimes referred to as two different kingdoms: Archaebacteria and Eubacteria.
MONERA
ARCHAEBACTERIA Oldest living organisms, prokaryotes and unicellular, found living in very harsh conditions (bottom of the sea, volcanic vents). Formed by 3 phyla: Methanogens, Halophiles, Thermoacidophiles.
EUBACTERIA Are more complex and common than archaebacteria. They live in more neutral conditions. Classified into 4 groups: Cyanobacteria, Spirochetes, Gram‐ positive, and Proteobacteria. They are also classified by shape: Cocci, Bacilli, Spirilla. 12

Bacterial Facts • There are more bacteria on Earth than all the other living things combined. Most bacteria are too small to be seen without a microscope. • The largest known bacteria are 1,000 times larger than the average bacterium. • All bacteria are unicellular prokaryotic organisms, which they lack a nucleus, nuclear membrane, and membrane bound organelles. • Prokaryotes function as independent organisms . • Prokaryotes reproduce differently than eukaryotes do. • Cyanobacteria are the first organisms to produce their own food by photosynthesis (autotrophs).

Kingdom PROTISTA
20
PROTISTS • These members of the Kingdom Protista are very diverse and have very few traits in common. • Most protists are single‐celled (unicellular) organisms, but some are made of many cells (multicellular), and others live in colonies. • Some protists make their own food, and some eat other organisms or decaying matter. • Some protists can control their own movement, and others cannot.

Characteristics of Protists • Protists do share a few characteristics. • For example: All protists are eukaryotes, or organisms with nucleus and organelles. • Protists are related more by how they differ from members of other kingdoms than by how they are similar to other protists. • Protists are less complex than other eukaryotic organisms; for example, protists don’t have specialized tissues. • But, fungi, plants, and animals evolved from early protists.

Teacher's Notes This class has been designed to cover the topics of Characteristics of Living Organisms from Monday March 23rd till Friday March 27th. For further knowledge about this topic: 1. Conduct a thorough search under the topic: Characteristics of Living Organisms on the Web, books and magazines. 2. If findings are not specific, ask your teacher for suggestions.
