2. THE KINGDOMS
MONERA
PROTOCTISTA
FUNGI
PLANTAE
ANIMALIA

3. MONERA SIMPLE SINGLE CELLED BACTERIA THEY ABSORB FOOD
CAUSE OF TUBERCOLOSIS AND PNEUMONIA

4. PROTOCTISTA MOST ARE SINGLE CELLED BUT SOME ARE MULTICELLULAR
THEY FEED BY ABSORTION, PHOTOSYNTHESIS OR INGESTING FOOD
E.G AMOEBA IS UNICELLULAR
E.G. SEA BAMBOO IS MULTICELLULAR

5. FUNGI MOST ARE MULTICELLULAR BUT SOME ARE SINGLE CELLED
FEED BY ABSORBTION OF FOOD BY SIMPLE DIFFUSION
E.G. YEAST IS UNICELLULAR
E.G. MUSHROOMS ARE MULTICELLULAR

6. PLANTAE (PLANTS)
MULTICELLULAR WITH SPECIALISED CELLS ( XYLEM, PHOEM, PITS, SEIVE TUBES, ROOTS, BRANCHES, LEAVES ETC)
AUTOTROPHIC – PRODUCES ITS OWN FOOD BY PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND DOES NOT NEED TO FEED

7. PLANTS WITH TRUE ROOTS, STEM AND LEAVES
KINGDOM PLANTAE
PLANTAE
ALGAE
MOSSES AND LIVERWORTS
PLANTS WITH TRUE ROOTS, STEM AND LEAVES

8. PLANTS WITH TRUE ROOTS, STEMS AND LEAVES
CONE BEARING PLANTS
e.g. Pine cone and acorn who reproduce by seeds, often in cones
FLOWERING PLANTS e.g. trees, herbs, grasses shrubs that reproduce by seeds leading to fruit formed after pollination of flowers
PLANTS THAT SONT PRODUCE SEEDS BUT REPRODUCE BY SPORES e.g. ferns

9. ANIMALIA (ANIMALS)
MULTICELLULAR WITH SPECIALISED CELLS ( ORGANS – HEART, BRAIN, STOMACH, KIDNEYS, LUNGS ETC)
HETEROTROPHIC – MUST INGEST FOOD TO SURVIVE AND CANNOT MAKE FOOD ON ITS OWN
