Classification
  1. By Sadia Ali 10B
    1. The process of sorting organisms into groups based on their characteristics
      1. Species
        1. Organisms that have many characteristics in common are grouped together
          1. species that share many characteristics are grouped together as genus.
            1. Genera that share many characteristics are groups as a family and so on.
          2. the five kingdoms of organisms
            1. Animalia
              1. multicellular; no cell walls; complex structure with nucleus
              2. Plantea
                1. multicellular; autotrophic feeders using chlorophyll; cell walls made of cellulose; complex cell structure
                2. Fungi
                  1. multicellular; saprophytic feeders so no chlorophyll; complex cell structure
                  2. Protoctista
                    1. Mostly unicellular; complex cell structure with neclues
                    2. Prokaryotae
                      1. unicellular; simple cell structure with no neuclues
                      2. Multicellular
                        1. Made if many cells
                      3. No kingdom for viruses
                        1. scientist do not think them as alive
                          1. They don't show other life processes like growth or feeding
                          2. it changes the way the cell works and makes copies of itself
