Answers
1.A country that is ruled by a king or queen
2.One of the three traditional divisions of the natural world, larger than a class or a phylum
Answer:In the study of taxonomy, the rank of kingdom is just below domain, as seen on the image below. All of life, thought to come from a single origin, can be broken down into lower levels of classification, such as a kingdom or phylum.
The four commonly recognized Kingdoms are Protista, Animalia, Plantae, and Fungi. The bacteria and archaea are sometimes grouped into one kingdom, the Monera, and sometimes given their own separate kingdom. Under the view that they belong to separate domains, they should be given separate kingdoms to reflect the structure of the taxonomical heirarchy. However, some scientists have argued against the taxonomical heirarchy, saying it does not accurately reflect the relationships between organisms.
