The Six Animal Kingdoms

The Animal Kingdom

• The Australian Freshwater Crocodile or the Crocodylus johnstoni is in the Animal Kingdom
• This species of Crocodiles began to evolve about 250 million years ago, during the late Permian period.
• The Freshwater Australian Crocodiles closest Relative is the SALTWATER Australian Crocodile.
• This Crocodile is one of the smaller species of Crocodiles ranging from 2.5-3 meters long.
• These Crocodiles breed when the male reaches about 1.5 meters long, the female is typically smaller. Australian Freshwater Crocodiles breed from July to September. The eggs are typically laid about 6 weeks after mating. Eggs incubated at 32 degrees celcius become male embryos, eggs incubated above and below 32 degrees celcius become females.
• An example of how this Crocodile adapts and responds to stimuli is that they have evovled, not only to live in freshwater, but these Crocodiles can live in bracish waters. Their scales can also keep out chemicals

Plant Kingdom

Taxus cusipidata is the scientific categorization of the Japanese Yew. The family Taxaceae has large and small evergreen trees and shrubs. The genus Taxus specifically contains small shrubs and trees. The Japanese Yew has many cousins, including the American Yew which looks very similar. The Japanese Yew is an invasive species, meaning it did not originate in America. It adapted to be able to live in America. It was originally brought to America for its size and shape and colors. It is Eukaryotic, and multiple-celled. It lives in Japan, China and other places, somtimes not naturally. The age of my species is around 56,000 years old. The Japanese Yew reproduces with sexual reproduction. The Japanese yew is extremely poisonous. "Sudden" death is a symptom that one has eaten a Japanese yew berry.

Eubacteria Kingdom

Streptococcus pneumoniae is better known as pnemonia, and is one of the Eubacterias that are not helpful to a human. It is in the genus Streptococcus, and it can be deadly to humans.

Like almost all bacteria, it can reproduce quickly asexually, so it can quickly create new strains of the bacteria. An example of it responding to stimuli is when a person takes an inhaler with medicine to get rid of it, it adapts so that it eventually becomes immune to the medicine. It is Prokaryotic, and unicellular. It is usually in pairs, but can be found singular or in short chains. Streptococcus pnemoniae lives in human bodies.

Fungi Kingdom

Archaeabacteria Kingdom

It is unicellular as well as prokaryotic. The oldest known types of Pyrococcus furiosis are 3.8 billion years old. Almost as old as Earth. They reproduce asexually through binary fission, just like eubacteria. They live mostly in deep sea vents, particularly the ones close to volcanoes. They dont really react to stimuli too much. Its colsest relative is Pyrolobus fumarii

Protist Kingdom

• Giant Kelp or Morcocxtis pyritera is in the Protist Kingdom
• Giant Kelp is an Eukaryotic Organism, meaning that is has a nucleus and organelles
• Giant Kelp is a Multicellular Organism, meaning is has more than one cell in its body
• Giant Kelp live in Kelp forests underwater, A Kelp Forest is a giant colony of Giant Kelp that are all clumped together.
• The species Giant Kelp is about 14,000 years old
• Giant Kelp is typically 100-175 feet tall, this plant cam grow 10-12 inches in a day.
• Giant Kelp's closest realtives are sea palms, and bull kelp
• Giant Kelp reproduces asexually, generating spores which then attach to the seafloor and create another Giant Kelp.
• Giant Kelp has adapted to it's environment by having roots that stick into the ground, allowing it to remain stationary as the tide shifts.

And that is our Prezi!

Pyrococcus furiosis.

Fairy ring mushrooms are multicellular and they have complex cells. They react to stimuli by growing in rings. They reproduce asexually through spores. They can be found in a lot of open meadows and fields around the world and were discovered about 700 years ago. Their closest relative is the Sarcodon imbricatus, or the shingled hedgehog mushroom.
