Kingdoms of
Life
Write down what you need to remember about each kingdom and any other important information.
Taxonomy- the science dealing with the description, identification, naming, and classification of organisms.
Kingdom- a taxonomic category of the highest rank, grouping together all forms of life having certain fundamental characteristics in common.
Autotroph- organism that can make its own food from an inorganic source.
Heterotroph- organism that cannot make its own food and must therefore eat other organisms in order to get nutrients.
Eukaryote- organism whose cells have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
Prokaryote- organism whose cells contain no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles.
