All organisms must have all the characteristics listed below to be classified as an animal. Multicellular (lack cell walls) Eukaryotic Obtain food and oxygen Homeostasis – maintaining internal conditions stable Although some undergo a process of metamorphosis later on in their life Reproduce (sexually) Heterotroph – other feeder Adapt with environment Movement (motile) (sessile – coral) Tissue and organs

This was my old dog Bella. She is an animal because she has all the characteristics an animal must have. She is Multicellular (lack cell walls) Eukaryotic Obtain food and oxygen Homeostasis – maintaining internal conditions stable Ect.

Photosynthetic Multicellular - Autotroph Classified into Nonvascular (no tubes) or Vascular (tubes) Cell walls made of cellulose

This beautiful and rare Hibiscus insularis. It is a plant because it has all the characteristics a plant must have. It it/has Photosynthetic Multicellular - Autotroph Classified into Nonvascular (no tubes) or Vascular (tubes) Cell walls made of cellulose

Most are unicellular, but some are multicellular Cells have a membrane around the nucleus (eukaryotic) Some get nutrients and energy by eating other organisms Some get energy from the sun, and nutrients from the water around them Most reproduce by splitting in two (binary fission) Examples are paramecium, amoeba, and kelp Organism that can not fit into any other Kingdom

This is a species of Protist Actinosphaerium It is a part of the kingdom Protist because it has all the characteristics the Protist kingdom must have It has/is Cells have a membrane around the nucleus (eukaryotic) Some get nutrients and energy by eating other organisms Some get energy from the sun, and nutrients from the water around them Most reproduce by splitting in two (binary fission) Examples are paramecium, amoeba, and kelp Organism that can not fit into any other Kingdom

Heterotrophs through absorption Cell wall made of chitin Reproduces using spores (seeds) Eukaryotic Moist, warm environment Mushroom, yeast, mold are examples

Fly agaric is a species of Fungi It is a part of the kingdom Fungi because it has all the characteristics the Fungi kingdom must have It is/has Heterotroph through absorption Cell wall made of chitin Reproduces using spores (seeds) Eukaryotic Loves moist, warm environments

Unicellular Prokaryotic Heterotroph or autoroph Pathogenic (disease) Parasitic in human body Asexual reproduction E. coli is an example

Animal Kingdom Kingdom Animalia has over 2 million specie Animals pass through a series of embryonic stages 75% of animal species are insects There are over 1,000,000 insect species Plant Kingdom Plants are found on land, in oceans, and in fresh water. They have been on Earth for millions of years. Plants were on Earth before animals and currently number about 260,000 species.

Eubacteria Kingdom They are also known as true bacteria, and are present on almost all surfaces Eubacteria kingdom consists of nearly 5000 species that have been discovered till date Eubacteria were previously under the kingdom 'Monera' which also included Archaebacteria Archaebacteria Kingdom Archaebacteria are sometimes known as archae, which is the Greek word for "old“ It is widely believed that archaebacteria are approximately 3.5 billion years old, and have been on planet Earth for almost as long as it has existed. There are three distinct types of archaebacteria. The first type are called methanogens The second type of archaebacteria are called halophiles The third type of archaebacteria are called thermophiles.

Protist Kingdom Protists are either autotrophic, hetrotrophic, or mixotrophic. Protists reproduce either sexually, asexually, and some even do both in their life cycle. Protists are either unicellular, multicellular, or colonial. Fungi Kingdom Fungi live everywhere - in the air, in water, on land, in soil, and in and on plants and animals Fungi are decomposers - they change dead things into a substance called humus There are about different kinds of fungi.
