All about Kingdoms!

Today, we started off class by turning in our Cornell Note on 18.3 that were due yesterday. We then moved on by talking about the Animal of the day #2. Today's animal was...the...STAR NOSED MOLE! Its class is a mammal.  It had an odd looking nose, which made it unique.
After that, we took notes on Kingdoms:

6 Kingdom System:

-As things evolve they get more complex
-They share a common ancestor
-"Protista"-they don;t know if they should call it a   kindom.







Three Domain System:
-3 Domains: Bacteria, Archea, and Eukarya.
-A more current taxonomic arrangement.
-Based on comparisons of tRNA sequences.

Archeabacteria and Eubacteria: (REVIEW)
-Formally the kingdom Monera
-Single-celled prokaryotic
 -Archeabacteria
    -No pepridoglycan
    -Found in harsh environments
 -Eubacteria
    -Peptidoglycan in cell wall
    -Most bacteria we encounter

Kingdom "Protista":
-Eukaryotic
-Most unicellular, some are multicellular
-Heterotrophic or autotrophic (photosynthetic)
-Very diverse kingdom
     (amoeba, paramecium, algae, euglena)

Kigdom Fungi:
-Eukaryotic
-Single or multicellular
-Cell wall made of chitin
-Decomposers/Heterotrophs
     (mushrooms, yeast, mold)

Kingdom Plantae:
-Eukaryotic
-Multicellular
-Autotrophic
- Cell Wall composed of cellulose

Kingdom Animalia:
-Eukaryotic
-Multicellular
-Heterotrophic
-No cell wall

After all those notes, we started the Shark Key. It is located on pages 9-12 in the UP. On page 12, we have to make our own biological key in both the fish and the leaves!

HOMEWORK:
*Finish Shark UP (9-12)
*Invert Profile, Due: 2/22
*Read Section 26.1
*TV add Due: 2/28
