Organisms are put into Kingdoms based on: Cell type Cell construction Body type Unicellular vs Multicellular Nutrition
Students gather general info from text on each kingdom
Plants and Animal Kingdoms Cells that differentiate “division of labor” Because cells differentiate can organize Tissue Organ Organ sytem
