  2. Texas TEK B (8) C—Student will identify characteristics of kingdoms including Monerans, Eubacteria, (Archaebacteria) Protists, Fungi, Plants, and Animals. 2

  3.  Biologists have always organized all living organisms into large groups called Kingdoms.  For many years, Scientists recognized two forms of life,  Prokaryotes  Eukaryotes. 3

  4.  Eukaryote is an organism that have cells with nuclei, or nucleus  Prokaryote is an organism without a nucleus. 4

  5.  Today, Biologists group organisms into six kingdoms, based on their similarities  Eubacteria and Arachaebacteria were once grouped in the kingdom Monera, which contained all the Prokaryotes. 5

  6.  Today after the advances in Bio- Technology, Scientists have gathered data from RNA and DNA Sequencing  Monerans have now been divided into two distinct Kingdoms  Eubacteria  Archaebacteria 6

  7.  For many years Scientists recognized two basic forms of life,  Prokaryotes  Eukaryotes.  In 1977, Carl Woese and his colleagues proposed that some prokaryotes are so di fg erent from others that they needed to be divided into their own broad division. 7

  8.  Woese and his colleagues based their proposal on comparisons of ribosomal RNA sequences.  They concluded that the prokaryotes that make up the kingdom Archaebacteria are more closely related to Eukaryotes than they are to the other Kingdom of Prokaryotes, Eubacteria. 8

  9.  In 1996, Scientists made the first comparison between the DNA sequences of Archaebacterium and a Bacterium.  In light of the past di fg erences between the two groups of prokaryotes, biologists have adopted a classification system that divides all organism into three super kingdoms or domains:  Bacteria  Archae  Eukarya 9

  10.  The oldest of course is Bacteria.  This is followed by the Archaebactera and then Domain Eukarya which includes the other Four Kingdoms:  Protista  Fungi  Plantae  Animalia 10
