Distinguish among five Kingdoms of life on basis of cell type nuclear envelope cell wall mode of nutrition and multicellularity in tabulated form?
Answers
Answer:
Five Kingdom Classification
Very early on, scientists began grouping the living organisms under different categories. Some biologists classified organisms into plants and animals. Ernst Haeckel, Robert Whittaker, and Carl Woese are some biologists who attempted a broader system of classification. Amongst these, the Five Kingdom Classification proposed by Robert Whittaker stood out and is widely used.
Whitaker proposed that organisms should be broadly divided into kingdoms, based on certain characters like the structure of the cell, mode of nutrition, the source of nutrition, interrelationship, body organization, and reproduction. According to this system, there are five main kingdoms. They are:
Kingdom Monera
Kingdom Protista
Kingdom Fungi
Kingdom Animalia
Kingdom Plantae
Kingdoms are divided into subgroups at various levels. The following flowchart shows the hierarchy of classification.
Kingdom → Phylum → Class → Order → Family → Genus → Species
No visible feeding mechanism. They absorb nutrients through the cell wall or produce their own by photosynthesis. ... Animals are multicellular, and move with the aid of cilia, flagella
