The Five Kingdoms
Kingdoms are a way that scientists have developed to divide all living things. These
divisions are based on what living things have in common and how they differ. This
system was developed over 2, 000 years ago and has changed drastically over the
years. Currently there are five kingdoms in which all living things are divided: Monera
Kingdom (/science/biology/monera_kingdom/), Protist Kingdom
(/science/biology/protist_kingdom/), Fungi Kingdom (/science/biology/fungi_kingdom/),
Plant Kingdom (/science/biology/plant_kingdom/), and Animal Kingdom
(/science/biology/animal_kingdom/).
Monera Kingdom

The Monera Kingdom consists of organisms that are made up of one cell. These
organisms are called unicellular. These unicellular organisms are made of a very simple
cell that often lacks many cell parts, such as a nucleus, that are commonly found in
other cells. Bacteria are a type of monera.
Protist Kingdom
Protists are similar to monera in that they are unicellular. Protists are a bit more
complex because they contain a nucleus. They also have moving parts and can move
around within their environment.
Fungi Kingdom

Fungi have their own kingdom because there is no other organism like them. They were
once thought to be plants but they differ from plants in one major way. Fungi cannot
make their own food. Mushrooms are a type of fungi.
Plant Kingdom
All plants are a part of the Plant Kingdom. Plants include trees, grass, flowers, and
algae. They all share the common characteristic of being able to make their own food
using water and sunlight. Because they only require a few simple requirements, plants
can grow almost anywhere.
Animal Kingdom
(https://t.mookie1.com/t/v1/clk?
Organisms in the Animal Kingdom are multicellular and rely on other organisms for
food. This kingdom is by far the largest of all the kingdoms. The animals of the Animal
Kingdom can be found all over the world and can be any size from very tiny to
extremely big.
