Protists are a kind of life traditionally classified in the kingdom Protista. Newer taxonomic organizations will classify some protists in the kingdom of Chromista, but they are still protists. Most protists are unicellular; however, they can be multicellular organisms. Protists are not plants,...
To be exact, seaweed is a type of multicellular algae, and true algae like seaweed belong to the kingdom Protista (not the kingdom Plantae). Algae are simple, plantlike organisms that are believed to be ancestors of modern-day land plants. Lacking vascular tissues like xylem and phloem, pl...
New reproductive termites are winged so they can fly. These young kings and queens, called alates, leave their home colony and fly out in search of a mate, often in large swarms. Each royal pair of king and queen emerges from the swarm together and finds a new place to start a new co...
are organisms belonging to the kingdomAnimaliaand the phylum Arthropoda. They are a very diverse group of animals that includes but is far from limited to insects, crustaceans, spiders, scorpions, and centipedes. Arthropods make up the largest phylum in the world, with more numbers and species ...
Pokémon fill all the requirements of being animals except for their diets. We are still learning much about many strange metabolisms and food preferences in the animal kingdom, so I don’t think we can exclude Pokémon from Animalia just for this, as I mentioned above. We’ll keep explorin...
algae, members of a group of predominantly aquatic photosynthetic organisms of the kingdomProtista. Algae have many types oflife cycles, and they range in size from microscopicMicromonasspeciesto giantkelpsthat reach 60 metres (200 feet) in length. Their photosynthetic pigments are more varied than...
thebacteria(kingdom Monera), based on their unique absence of a clearly defined nucleus. Under Copeland’s arrangement, the kingdom Protista thus consisted of nucleated life that was neither plant nor animal. The following decade he revived the name Protoctista, using it in favour of Protista....

Traditionally, all prokaryotic cells were called bacteria and were classified in the prokaryotic kingdom Monera. However, their classification as Monera, equivalent in taxonomy to the other kingdoms—Plantae, Animalia, Fungi, and Protista—understated the remarkable genetic and metabolic diversity ...
