The 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.
- All living things in the Monera Kingdom are
unicellular.
- Bacteria belong to the Monera Kingdom.
The Protoctista
Kingdom
Protoctistas can be
unicellular or multicellular. Protoctistas are a bit more complex than Monera
because they contain a nucleus. They also have moving parts and can move around
within their environment.
- Living things in the Protoctista Kingdom
- Amoebas are unicellular.
- Algae can be unicellular or multicellular.
- Living things in the Protoctista Kingdom make
their own food through photosynthesis.
The Fungus 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.
- Living things in the Fungus Kingdom can be
unicellular or multicellular.
- Yeast is a unicellular organism.
- Mushrooms and mould are multicellular
organisms.
- Living things in the Fungus Kingdom take
the nutrients from dead plants or animals.
