Question |
Answer |
cell |
the smallest unit an organism that performs life functions |
nucleus |
a structure found in eukaryotic cells that contain DNA and is responsible for controlling the activities of the cell |
eukaryotic |
a cell containing a membrane-enclosed nucleus and organelles |
prokaryotic |
a cell locking a nucleus or any other membrane enclosed organelles |
unicellular |
an organism made up one single cell |
multicellular |
an organism made up of more than one cell and often made up of different types of cells |
classification |
the process of grouping things based on similarities |
taxonomy |
the branch of science that formally names and classifies organisms by |
domain |
the highest and largest rank of grouping organisms three groups: archaea,bacteria,and eukarya |
domain bacteria |
prokaryotic,single celled organism that locks a nucleus in its cell |
domain archae |
prokaryotic,single celled organism that locks a nucleus in its cell and can live in extreme enviroments |
domain eukarya |
organisms with cells that contain a nucleas |
kingdom |
a taxonomic rank below domain 6 groups:animalia,fungi,plantae,protista,archaea,and eubacteria |
autotroph |
an organism that is able to make its own food;known as a producer in the food chain |
heterotroph |
an organism that cannot make its own food;known as a consumer in the food chain |
asexual reproduction |
a method of reproduction that requires only one parent 100% dna from 1 parent |
sexual reproduction |
a method of reproduction that requires both male and female parent 50% from 1 parent 50% from 1 parent |
cell theory |
states that all living organisms are made up of 1 or more cells;cells are the basic unit of life and all cells come from other cells |
kingdom archeabacteria |
unicellular,asexual auto and heterotroph prokaryotic organism that live in extreme enviroments |
kingdom eubacteria |
unicellular,asexual auto and heterotroph prokaryotic organism that live in moderate enviroments |
kingdom fungi |
uni and multi cellular sexual or asexual,heterotrophic,eukaryotic organism;known as a decomposer in the food chain |
kingdom plantae |
multi-cellular,sexual and asexual,autographs,eukaryotic organism;known as a producer in the food chain |
kingdom animilia |
multi-cellular ,sexual land asexual,heterotrophs eukaryotic organisms;known as a consumer in the food chain |
kingdom protista |
uni and multi cellular sexual or a sexual auto and hetrerotrophic eukaryotic organism that are microscophic |
