The 6 Kingdoms of Life! :)

Sooo I'm back and this is my second blog and this is my first EDUCATIONAL blog! I hope that you enjoy

Scientists have divided living things into six large groups called  Kingdoms.

• Why do we classify living organisms?
• What are the Six Kingdoms?
• How each kingdom's are alike and different?!

The six kingdoms of life..

1. Animals - More than 15,000,000 species know
2. Plants- About ( Like Not Exactly ) 270,000
3. Fungi- About 70,000
4. Proist- About 80,000
5. Archebacteria- About 5,000 w/ The one below (Thats not a lot just saying!)
6. Eubacteria- About 5,000 w/ The on above (There's a difference)              Okay, that's All six!

Now Let's Talk about CLASSIFICATION! 


Why do they have it!??!? Wellllllllll Think about a world WITHOUT IT   If you think " Well, Its NO biggy of a dealio! :P" Well THEN take a look at this picture and imagine if you were trying  to find One little book!

(By the way this is a LIBRARY) NOW This is why we have and need Classification! Here is a list of some places that have Classification and how they classify it....

• The Grocery Store: The Have areas in the store that say "Meat", "Seafood", "Bakery"' and "Pharmacy". They also have Number aisle's so they have 14 Canned goods or Rice! (All types of rice, yumm Rice! :P )
• ITunes: They Classify Music by Pop, Rock, Rap, Country, And Movies or Books. ( Katy Perry!!!)
• Game Stores: Games Stores Classify it by Wii, XBox, Psp, Play Station, Ds, 3Ds, And New Releases! ( Wii Yeah I have a wii! )
• Clothing Stores: They classify it by Girls, Boys, Men, Women, Babies, Toddlers, and Swimwear. (Yeah GIRLS RULE THEY WILL RUN THE WORLD lol :P )
• Library's: They have Children's books, Adults books, Spanish books, French books, Movies, And CD'S ( Children IM A CHILD :P )

See HOW important classification is and now I bet that you back what you said dont you? ( Yes IT IS A delio and a biggy :'( ) Anyways, So lets get back to the Six Kingdoms  now that you understand how IMPORTANT  Classifcation is, Right? You do! Good ;) So to remind you because this is a long post and I was teaching you about the CLASSIFICATION I tought you about!!! So there's Animals, Plants, Fungi, Proist, Archeabacteria, And last but probibly least eubacteria!!! So first lets talk about animals!!

This animal has a backbone (NO DUH) Yea, Yea, Yea I know but you wonder," Hey, How do scientists identify nearly 2 MILLION different kinds of animals????" Hmmmmmm, well They start by determining wheather an animal has a backbone!!! And animals WITH a backbone are Vertebrates!! Yes, vertebrates!
Animals without backbone's are callled invertebrates! So an examble of vertebrate is a cat! An example of a invertebrate is a squid.

Now lets talk about plants!!!!

The plant kingdom includes A WIDE variety of organisms ! It goes from tiny mosses to GIANT TREES!  A pine tree is part of a group called conifers! Plants hve cells with walls and a nucleus that contains ( Has ) DNA

Ok now lets talk about fungi! ( BLEECH FUNGI BARF )

Now I know there is edible ones like ones in your soup to this one in the picture thats deadly ( sometimes )!
A fungus is an organism thats cells have walls, yes walls. A few just a few, fungi cause disease in living things! Oh yea NASTY DEADLY DISEASE!  So just stick to the mushrooms in your salad! Yumm!

Ok nowwwwwww theres proist! Whats a proist well you will fing out a little bit about it!


Proist looks like germs dont they! Yea but there not N-O-T! Proist classifies whether they are animals (yeah animals) or more like plants or more like fungi???  Proist are microscopic like really,really,really, small (like an atom and you all should know about atoms) organisms that MAY have characteristics of plants, animals, or fungi!

KKKKK ITS BACTIRA TIME!!!


Now there is 2 types of bacteria, archaebacteria and eubacteria! They are different! Archaebacteria has a membrane and eubacteria has no membrane. Archaebacteria stands for " Ancient bacteria"
