Classification Kingdoms and Classes
Objective: Classification is sorting out all organisms into groups according to the similarities between them. Organisms are divided into two main kingdoms: the animal kingdom and the plant kingdom which in turn can further be divided until species level is reached

Animals Plants Prokaryotes Organisms Protists Fungi
Jellyfish, worms, arthropods, molluscs, echinoderms, amphibians, fish, reptiles, birds and mammals. Seed bearing plants and non-seed bearing plants Plants Organisms Prokaryotes Bacteria and primitive algae Protists Single-celled organisms Fungi Moulds, mushrooms and toadstools
