| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| cell | the smallest unit of an organism that performs life function |
| nucleus | a structure found in Eukaryota cells that contain DNA and is reasonable for controlling the activities of the cell |
| Eukaryotic | a cell containing a membrane-enclosed organelles |
| Prokaryotic | a cell lacking a nucleus or any other membrane-enclosed otganelles |
| unicellular | an organism made up of one single cell |
| multicellular | an organism made up of different types of cells |
| classification | the process of grouping things based on similarities |
| taxonmy | the branch of science that formally names and classifies organism by their structure function and relationship |
| Domain | the highest and largest rank of grouping organism three groups archaea bacteria and Eukarya |
| Domain Bacteria | prototypical single-celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell |
| Domain Archaea | prokaryotic single celled organism that lacks a nucleus in its cell and can live in extreme enviroments |
| Domain Eukarya | organism with cells that contain a nucleus |
| Kingdom | a taxonomic rank below Domain 6 groups: Animalia Fungi Plantae Protista Archae and Eu-bacteria |
| autotroph | an organism that is able to make its own food known as a producer in food chain |
| heterotroph | an organism that is able to make its own food known as a consumer in the food chain |
| asexual repoduction | a method of reproduction that require only one parent source 100% DNA from 1 parent |
| sexual reproduction | a method of reproduction that require 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 a cell come from other cells |
| kingdom Archeabacteria | unicellular asexual auto and heterotoph prokaryotic organism that live in extreme enviroments |
| kingdom Eubacteria | unicellular a sexual auto and heterotroph prokaryotic organism that live in moderate enviroments |
| kingdom Protista | uni-and multicellular sexual or asexual heterotrophic eukaryotic organism that are mictoscopic |
| kingdom Fungi | uni-and multicelullar sexual or asexual hetorotrphic |
| Kingdom Plantae | muliticellular sexual and asexual autotroph eukaryotic organism known as a producer in the food chain |
| Kingdom Animilia | multicelllualar sexual and asexual hetrotrophs eukaryotic organism known as a consumer in the food chain |
