DO NOT WRITE ON THIS SHEET. Welcome to the Kingdom Living things are classified into six kingdoms. Help the insanely smart professor Tax Onomi name them correctly. Write the correct kingdom next to each phrase that describes the characteristics of its members. Some will have more than one answer. Animal Plant Protist Fungus Eubacteria Archaebacteria 1. Have only 1 cell. 2. May have 1 cell or many cells. 3. All have many cells. 4. All or most move independently. 5. Some move independently; some do not. 6. None move independently. 7. Cells have no nucleus 8. All make their own food 9. Do not make their own food. 10. Some make food; some do not. 11. Photosynthetic autotrophs. 12. All are heterotrophs 13. Cells contain a nucleus. 14. Cell walls contain cellulose. 15. Cells without cell walls. 16. Cell wall with chitin. 17. Most feed on dead or decaying organic matter. 18. Extremophiles 19. Survive only in the absence of oxygen. 20. No chloroplasts. 21. What does multicellular mean? 22. What does heterotroph mean? 23. How are prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells different?

The Correct Answer and Explanation is:

Here are the correct kingdom names that match each description:

1. Have only 1 cell – Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protist
2. May have 1 cell or many cells – Protist
3. All have many cells – Animal, Plant, Fungus
4. All or most move independently – Animal, Protist
5. Some move independently; some do not – Protist, Eubacteria, Archaebacteria
6. None move independently – Plant, Fungus
7. Cells have no nucleus – Eubacteria, Archaebacteria
8. All make their own food – Plant
9. Do not make their own food – Animal, Fungus
10. Some make food; some do not – Protist, Eubacteria, Archaebacteria
11. Photosynthetic autotrophs – Plant, Protist, Eubacteria, Archaebacteria
12. All are heterotrophs – Animal, Fungus
13. Cells contain a nucleus – Animal, Plant, Fungus, Protist
14. Cell walls contain cellulose – Plant
15. Cells without cell walls – Animal
16. Cell wall with chitin – Fungus
17. Most feed on dead or decaying organic matter – Fungus
18. Extremophiles – Archaebacteria
19. Survive only in the absence of oxygen – Archaebacteria
20. No chloroplasts – Animal, Fungus, Eubacteria (some), Archaebacteria (some)

21. What does multicellular mean?
Multicellular means an organism is made up of more than one cell. These cells work together and may have different functions. Most animals, plants, and fungi are multicellular.

22. What does heterotroph mean?
A heterotroph is an organism that cannot make its own food. It must get its energy by eating other organisms or organic substances. Animals and fungi are examples of heterotrophs.

23. How are prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells different?
Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus or other membrane-bound organelles. Their DNA floats freely in the cell. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus that holds the DNA and many organelles. Eubacteria and Archaebacteria are prokaryotic, while all other kingdoms are eukaryotic.

This classification helps scientists group and study living things based on their structures and behaviors.
