    The organisms first believed to live on Earth were the Prokaryotes. Prokaryotes have many differences and similarities to a Eukaryote. For an example‚ their names sound similar yet they are not the same so that makes them different. Since there are so many organisms‚ the organisms are separated into those two broad categories. Prokaryotes are nearly always a unicellular organisms. An example of a Prokaryote is bacteria and archaea . Prokaryotes do not contain a nucleus or a membrane that should

    very large‚ diverse group of organisms‚ including the plant-like protists (algae)‚ fungi-like protists‚ and the animal-like protists (protozoans). They are all eukaryotic‚ and most are unicellular. Traditional taxonomy of protists (Kingdom Protista) did not accurately represent evolutionary relationships‚ so the classification of this group is unsettled.  Modern taxonomy has rearranged the group formerly known as Kingdom Protista‚ separating the different types of organisms into their own candidate Kingdoms

    Microscopy Introduction What is life? What are the key factors that biologists have defined that apply to every single organism on the planet? In the 17th century‚ due to the amazing advancement of the microscope‚ biologists created a theory to differentiate the living from the non-living called the cell theory. One concept from the theory is that all living organisms are composed of one or more cells. The importance of studying cells is akin to the importance of studying life. By being able

    the idea that different organisms were related by descent‚ he devised a system that placed these organisms in a hierarchy. Through classification systems‚ scientist have found it easier to find answers to important questions. This way things are broken down more and easier to learn. Classification is the systematic grouping of organisms into catagories on the basis of evolutionary or structural relationships between them. The benefit of classifying organism is it makes the study
