Here is your answer
There are creatures living among us that use air and water to make sugar! Sounds magical, doesn't it? You probably take them for granted, but you shouldn't. They make the air you breathe, the food you eat, the fiber for your clothes, dyes for fabrics, the building materials for your house and the legs for your table. I could keep going but you get the idea. Kingdom plantae is one of six kingdoms of organisms, and it includes every plant you could imagine from the moss growing on the forest floor to the mighty, towering fir trees.
The Six Kingdoms
Taxonomists, or scientists who classify organisms, continually modify and adjust the classification system as new species are discovered. Here is a list of the five other kingdoms with one example organism, just so you can get an idea how plants compare.
Animalia: this is you and me and all other animalsProtista: this is the paramecium you might find in pond waterFungi: the mushrooms on your pizzaEubacteria: these are the bacteria growing on your skinArchaebacteria: these are the bacteria living in extreme conditions, like the salty Great Salt Lake in Utah
