| What are a few examples of animals? | eagles, dolphins, beetles |
| Describe fertilization. (animals) | (sexual) It is when the sperm fertilizes the egg internally (inside the body) or externally (outside the body) |
| Describe budding. (animals) | (asexual) Part of the organism "buds" off (hydra) |
| Describe regeneration (animals) | (asexual) It is when a new part/organism grows off an old one (starfish) |
| How do animals obtain food? | They are consumers. |
| What type of cells are animals made up of? | Eukaryotic cells |
| What are a few examples of plants? | Sequoias (trees), flowering plants |
| Describe fertilization. (plants) | (sexual) The sperm in the pollen fertilizes the egg. |
| Describe runners. (plants) | (asexual) It is when vines grow along and into the ground to create a new plant. |
| Describe budding. (plants) | (asexual) It is when small "buds" fall off and grow into new plants (ex: potato plants) |
| What is an example of a runner? (plants) | A strawberry plant |
| What is an example budding? (plants) | Potato plants |
| Describe plantlets. (plants) | (asexual) They are tiny plants that grow along the edge of leaves, fall off, and grow into new plants. |
| What is an example of a plantlet? (plant) | Kalanchoe plant |
| How do plants obtain food? | They are producers. |
| What are all plants made up of? | Eukaryotic cells |
| What are plant-like examples of a protist? | Euglena and Algae |
| What do protists use for food? | They use chloroplasts for food. |
| What does sessile mean? (Protist) | They generally do not move. |
| Why are Euglena also animal-like? | They move and consume. |
| What are examples of animal-like protozoa? (Protist) | Paramecium, Euglena, and Amoeba |
| What do Paramecium use for movement? (protist) | They use hair-like cilia for movement. |
| What do Amoeba use for movement? | They use pseudopod for movement to capture food. |
| What are examples of fungus-like protist? | slime mold and water mold |
| How do fungus-like protists obtain food? | They decompose for food. |
| How do fungus-like protists reproduce? | They reproduce by spores (sac of sex cells that are sexual or asexual). |
| In reproduction of Protists, what is conjugation? | (sexual)It is the exchange of DNA and it is split (only in paramecium). |
| In reproduction of Protists, what is binary fission? | (asexual)It is a copy of DNA and it is split only in Euglena, Amoeba, algae. |
| What are all protists? | They are Eukaryotic. |
| What are examples of fungi? | Most molds, mushrooms |
| In reproduction of fungi, what are spores? (sexual) |
They are structures that create sex cells that join to form spores. |
| In reproduction of fungi, what are spores? (asexual) |
They are structures that create spores that land in a suitable area to grow more fungus. |
| How do fungi obtain their food? | They are decomposers. |
| What are all the cells of a fungi? | All their cells are Eukaryotic. |
| What are examples of Eubacteria? | Examples are Eschericha, coli (E. coli), Streptococcus. |
| Where do Eubacteria live? | They live in mild climates (most common type) |
| What are the 3 shapes of Eubacteria and what are they called? | 1)Cocci is circular. 2)Bacillus is oval 3)Spirilla is spiral. |
| In the reproduction of Eubacteria, what is binary fission? | (asexual) It is when one cell splits to create 2 identical cells. |
| What are all of the cells of Eubacteria? | All of the cells are Prokaryotic. |
| Where do Archaebacteria live? | They live in extreme conditions such as; hot springs, volcanos, sea floor vents. |
| In the reproduction of Archaebacteria, what is binary fission? | (asexual)It is when one cell splits into 2 identical cells. |
| What are all of the cells of Archaebacteria? | All of the cells are Prokaryotic. |
