Living Systems: 5 Kingdoms
Animal : one of the living kingdoms whose members lack cell walls, are multi-celled organisms, and have locomotion abilities. Plant: one of the living kingdoms whose members have cell walls, and chloroplasts, which allow them to produce food.

Vocabulary of Science Did you know? A botanist studies… Plants.
A zoologist studies … Animals.

Plant Kingdom Multi- celled organism Make their own food
2 Types of Plants: Vascular Non-vascular

Vascular Plants Vascular plants have roots.
These plants make their own food and get nutrients for survival through their roots in the ground. Some examples of vascular plants are trees and bushes.

These plants get food by passing nutrients slowly from one cell to the next. An example would be moss.

Types of Organisms Organisms that eat green plants or animals are called consumers. Organisms that use the sun’s energy to make food are called producers. Organisms that break down dead plants and animals and use them for food are called decomposers.
25
Organisms Carnivores are meat eaters. Herbivores are plant eaters.
Omnivores eat plants and animals. What are humans?
26
Adaptations An organism can adapt to its environment to survive structurally and behaviorally. A structural adaptation is a physical characteristic an organism uses to survive. Example: Long beak on a bird A behavioral adaptation is an activity an organism performs to survive. Example: Hibernation
