What characteristics do scientists use to classify protists?
Protists are difficult to classify, and classification has changed over time. Modern definitions of protists are: "any eukaryote that is not an animal, (land) plant, or (true) fungus" and the second, which describes them mostly by functional or biological terms: "eukaryotes that are never multicellular, that either exist as independent cells, or if they occur in colonies, and do not show differentiation into tissues." Modern classification uses monophyletic groups that are based on ultrastructure, biochemistry, and genetics. visit the Related Link for more information.
Which term is broad enough to include the other three?
culture
What would scientist like a sixth kingdom for?
I guess the "sixth kingdom" would refer to archibacteria. The reason these are often placed into a separate kingdom is because they have considerable differences from the living beings in any of the other kingdoms.
What is a single-celled organisms?
Microorganism
What is the difference between sports and game?
Games include sports, but also include such things as board games, verbal games, and various other types of games which do not include the kind of physical activity which is associated with sports.
What two kingdoms include prokaryotes?
Actually, there are two DOMAINS of prokaryote. This are the Domain Archaea and the Domain Bacteria Archaea comprises archaebacteria which live in harsher conditions and differ from bacteria in their cell wall composition
How do prokaryotes differ from the other kingdoms?
bacteria does not have a nucleus
What is the difference between prokarytes and ekaryotes?
Prokaryotes are organisms that lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotes have a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotes are typically smaller and simpler in structure compared to eukaryotes. Eukaryotes include plants, animals, fungi, and protists, while prokaryotes include bacteria and archaea.
What eats eukaryotes?
Other eukaryotes may eat eukaryotes and some prokaryotes may eat eukaryotes.
How are protists related to other eukaryotes?
Protists are eukaryotes that do not belong to plant, animal or fungi species. The way in which protists are related to other eukaryotes stems from the fact that among the current protists include groups whose ancestors were the reason why plants, animals and fungi exist today.
What are the major kingdoms and their characteristics?
In taxonomy there is a distinction between prokaryotes (organisms with unnucleated cells) and eukaryotes (organisms with nucleated cells).There are 2 kingdoms of prokaryotes, Bacteria and Archaea. All species in these kingdoms are unicellular. Archaea and Bacteria differ from one another in the composition of their cell walls.The kingdoms of eukaryotes are:Plantae, which includes land plants, all multicellular and photosynthetic with cell walls of cellulose and large vacuoles.Animalia, which includes all animals, all multicellular and heterotrophic without cell walls.Fungi which are saprotrophic/saprophytic and have cell walls of chitin and can be either unicellular (yeasts) or multicellular (eg. basidiomycetes - mushrooms, and ascomycetes).Protista, which is a collection of organisms that do not fit into any of the other kingdoms. One day, protists may be divided into a further 60 or so kingdoms. They include protozoa and algae. Some may be unicellular (like Paramecium and Euglena) and some may be multicellular like kelp.
Supported the change in the classification system from five kingdoms to six kingdoms?
The change from five kingdoms to six kingdoms was supported in order to better reflect the evolutionary relationships among organisms. The addition of a separate Kingdom Protista helped to differentiate between single-celled eukaryotes that didn't fit neatly into the other kingdoms. Overall, the six-kingdom classification system provided a more accurate and comprehensive way to categorize and study living organisms.
All other organisms have prokaryote or eukaryotes?
Yes, all organisms are classified into one of the two categories: prokaryotes (organisms without a nucleus) or eukaryotes (organisms with a nucleus). Prokaryotes include bacteria and archaea, while eukaryotes include plants, animals, fungi, and protists.
What are the five kingdoms and their scientific names?
There are six kingdoms: Kingdom Animalia Kingdom Plantae Kingdom Protista Kingdom Fungi Kingdom Archaebacteria Kingdom Eubacteria The first four are eukaryotes and the last two are prokaryotes. It might be the other way around though.
How many types of organisms have eukaryotic cells?
Eukayote is a type of cell. Therefore there is no answer for this question.
What is prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes are organisms whose cells do not have a nucleus or any membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotes include bacteria and archaea, whereas eukaryotes include plants, animals, fungi, and protists.
What does protists are eukaryotes mean?
It means that protists are organisms that have a cell or cells with a true nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. This distinguishes them from prokaryotes, which lack a nucleus and other organelles. Eukaryotic organisms also include animals, plants, and fungi.
