Key Points: General Features of Five Kingdoms
- Monera - Primitive, single-celled prokaryotes; includes archaebacteria, cyanobacteria, mycoplasma and eubacteria. e.g. Bacteria, Oscillatoria, Nostoc.
- Protista - Single-celled eukaryotes, mainly aquatic; includes diatoms, golden algae, Euglena, and protozoans; often photosynthetic. e.g. Amoeba, Paramecium, Plasmodium.
- Fungi (Mycota) - Made of thread-like mycelium and hyphae; mostly saprophytes, parasites and symbionts; includes lichens and mycorrhiza. e.g. Aspergillus.
- Plantae (Metaphyta) - Multicellular plants with chlorophyll; includes herbs, shrubs, trees, flowering and non-flowering plants. e.g. Rose plant, Mango tree, Algae, Bryophytes.
- Animalia (Metazoa) - Heterotrophic, multicellular organisms; lack a cell wall; include all types of animals. e.g. Lion, Peacock.
