Survey of the Domains-

Hey wonderful AP Students, one of the major topics in the AP course is a survey of the three domains. This unit includes a survey of the Domain Archae, Domain Bacterial (in one presentation) and Domain Eukarya. The last domain inlcudes the Kingdom Protista (which no longer exists and is broken down into many kingdoms), Kingdom Plantae, Kingdom, Animalia and Kingdom Fungi. So that being the case......

For your viewing pleasure, there are power points with embeded questions, OR if you would like the power points narrated and a lesson taught to you just view and listen to the power point made into a video-(my favorit method). They are stored at two different sites and linked down below.

In addtion, the powerpoints have been converted into word documents that can be downloaded as notes. WOW all this at your fingertips. Remember-STUDY, STUDY, STUDY. You can do this ;-)
