This document classifies living things into five kingdoms: Monera, Protist, Fungi, Plants, and Animals. It provides details about each kingdom, including examples of types of organisms, their cell structure, habitat, feeding method, and other interesting facts. The kingdoms are differentiated based on these criteria, with Monera containing bacteria, Protist containing algae and amoebas, Fungi containing yeasts and mushrooms, Plants containing flowering plants and mosses, and Animals containing mammals, fish, birds, and insects.

1. CLASSIFICATION
OF LIVING
THINGS
by Andrés Arévalo

2. To understand this lesson better,
we will focus on some fixed
criteria for the classification of
the five groups of living things.

INTERESTING
FACTS
MONERA Bacteria They are
unicellular.
They live on
land, in the
water, in the
air and inside
other living
things.
They absorb
nutrients
through the
cell
membrane.
There are
three types:
Good
bacteria are
found in
cheese,
yoghurt, etc.
Bad bacteria
cause
illnesses.
Decomposers
feed on the
remains of
dead animals
and plants.

FACTS
PROTIST
(PROTISTAS)
Algae and
amoebae
- Algae can
be unicellular
or
multicellular.
- Amoebae
are
unicellular.
Most of them
live in the
water.
- Algae make
their own food
through
photosynthesis.
- Amoebae
absorb
nutrients
through the cell
membrane.
Algae are not
plants and
uring the day,
they release
oxygen to the
water.

FACTS
FUNGI
(HONGOS)
Yeasts
(levaduras)
Mushrooms
(setas)
Yeasts are
unicellular.
Mushrooms
are
multicellular.
They live
everywhere:
on land, in
the water, on
plants, etc.
They absorb
nutrients from
dead animals
and plants.
Yeasts can be
found in food
like bread,
beer, cakes,
etc.

INTERESTING
FACTS
PLANTS Flowering
plants, non-
flowering
plants, ferns,
mosses, etc.
They are
multicellular.
They usually
live on land.
They make
their own food
through
photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis
takes place
during the day.
Respiration
takes place
during the night,
because they
absorb oxygen
and release
carbon dioxide
to the
atmosphere.

FACTS
ANIMALS Some
examples
are:
mammals,
fish, birds,
amphibians,
reptiles,
insects,
arachnids,
etc.
They are
multicellular.
They can live
in the water
and on land
They need to
feed on other
living things.
They can be
carnivores,
herbivores
and
omnivores.
It is the
biggest group
of living
things.
There are
more than 7
millions
animal
species in the
word.
