There are five kingdoms of life: plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, and protists. Plants are divided into vascular and nonvascular types, with vascular plants having tissues to transport food and water. Animals are split into vertebrates and invertebrates, with vertebrates containing mammals, reptiles, fish and birds. Fungi absorb nutrients from the environment using external enzymes, unlike plants which produce their own food. Bacteria are microscopic single-celled organisms found everywhere, some causing disease. Protists exhibit characteristics of both plants and animals as single-celled photosynthesizers or consumers.

Plants
Animals
Fungi
Bacteria
Protists

3. Plants
Plants are split into two groups
vascular and nonvascular plants.
Nonvascular plants don’t have any
internal plumbing so they have to be
small like moss
Vascular plants have vascular tissue
like phloem that carries food, and
xylem that carries water. Most plants
are vascular plants like trees,
grasses, and flowers

4. Animals
Animals are split up into two groups
vertebrates and invertebrates
Within the vertebrates there are five
groups:
Mammals
Reptiles
Fish
Birds

5. Fungi
Unlike plants, which makes their own
food, fungi are like miniature versions
of our stomach, turned inside-out.
Fungi “eat” by releasing enzymes
outside of their bodies that break
down nutrients into smaller pieces
that they can then absorb.

6. Bacteria
Bacteria are single-celled
microscopic organisms found
everywhere in the environment and
on the human body. They are visible
with a light microscope. They are
usually harmless, but some cause
diseases in plants, animals, and
humans.

7. Protists
Protists are like tiny single-celled
plants and animals.
Amoebas swim around and eat
things just like animals do
Algae are green and do
photosynthesis like plants.
Protists are the things in pond water
people look at under a microscope
