Five general characteristics of organisms in kingdoms Plantae or Fungi are listed in the box. Which table correctly lists the characteristics of the organisms in the two kingdoms?

• 
• 
• 
• 

The Linnaean taxonomic system classifies organisms into divisions called taxa. If two organisms belong to the same taxonomic group, they are related. Similarity at which of these levels indicates the closest relationship?

• Kingdom

• Class

• Order

• Genus

How do viruses reproduce?

• They copy their own genetic material inside a protein coat.
• They kill a cell and reproduce inside it.
• They invade a living cell and use the cell's functions to replicate their genetic material.
• They do not reproduce because they are not technically living things.

Which stage of mitosis is shown in image E?

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase
