15. FINAL LEVELS ILLUSTRATE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE ORGANISM AND ITS EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT: ECOLOGY

16. KINGDOMS
In Linnaean Taxonomy the Kingdom is the largest group into which organisms can be classified
Organisms are placed into a Kingdom based upon three criteria:
Type of Cell: Prokayotic/Eukaryotic
Level of Organization: Unicellular/Multicellular
Method of Energy Conversion: Autotroph/Heterotroph
6 KINGDOMS
ARCHAEBACTERIA
FUNGI
EUBACTERIA
PLANTAE
PROTISTA
ANIMALIA
