Question

pls....can anyone tell the characteristics of the five kingdoms by robert wittaker (in small points)

Answer 1

monera-comes under prokaryots,protista-its unicellular,animalia-without cell wall,plantae-they are autotrophs,fungi-they are heterotrophs

Answer 2

Living organisms are divided into five kingdoms:

1:Prokaryotae
2:Protoctista
3:Fungi
4:Plantae
5:Animalia

Prokaryotae

1:Unicellular and Microscopic.
2:Non-membrane bound (no nuclear membrane, no ER, no mitochondia)
3:Cell wall made of murein.

examples are Algae, slime moulds and the malaria causing Plasmodium.

Protoctista

1Mainly small eukaryotic organisms.
Many live in aquatic environments.
This is usually the kingdom where organisms which aren’t animals, plants or fungi go.
Examples: Algae, slime moulds and the malaria causing Plasmodium

Fungi

Eukaryotic
Multicellular
Cell wall made of chitin
The members of this kingdom don’t possess photosynthetic pigments and are therefore heterotrophic.
Examples: Mushroom, Mold, Puffball

Plantae

Eukaryotic
Multicellular
Cell wall made of cellulose.
Members of the plantae group contain photosynthetic pigment and gain their energy through it and are therefore autotrophic.

Animalia

Eukaryotic
Multicellular
Heterotropic
The members of this kingdom can be split into two groups, vertebrates and invertebrates.
The vertebrate subsection of the animalia kingdom can be split again into five different sections:
Fish
Reptiles
Amphibians, birds and mammals..


Hope this would help you
