What is one way that plants are different from fungus?
Plants are prokaryotic.
Plants cannot move freely.
Plants are multicellular.
Plants produce their own food.
At one time, fungi, were classified in the same kingdom as plants. Today, fungi are classified in their own kingdom. Which statement BEST summarizes why fungi and plants are now classified in separate kingdoms?
Plants and fungi both contain cell walls and share more characteristics than separate them.
The discovery of new evidence led to a reclassification of fungi.
Advancements in technology showed that fungi and plants are closely related.
The plant kingdom was getting too large, so scientists divided it into two kingdoms.
To which kingdom would a single-celled amoeba belong to?
animal
fungi
plant
protist
Select ALL characteristics of the plant kingdom.
multicellular
autotrophic
doesn't move around much
cannot make their own food
Which of the following characteristics would be MOST important to scientists when classifying organisms?
the size of the organism
where the organism lives
how the organism obtains its food
the shape of the organism
Select ALL characteristics of the animal kingdom.
heterotrophic
autotrophic
multicellular
cannot move about freely
Using a microscope, looking at water collected from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, near a hydrothermal vent, a scientist discovers a new single-celled organism. In which kingdom is this organism MOST likely to be classified?
protist
bacteria
fungi
plant
In Ms. Johnson's science class, 4 groups are measuring the height of their plants in the science experiment. One group had measurements that were a lot different than the other 3 groups. What is MOST LIKELY the reason why one group's measurements were different?
they used a different type of ruler
they measured more frequently
they placed their plant in a less sunny area
they made inaccurate measurements
One group from Ms. Johnson's class had different results from the rest of the groups. What should they do since their results were so different?
throw out their results and start over
change their results to match the other groups
talk to the other groups to figure out why their results are different
decide the other groups are wrong and finish their report
Why are there fewer kinds of organisms at each lower level of classification?
The lower the level of classification, the more closely related the organisms become.
The higher the level of classification is, the smaller the size of the organism.
The lower the level of classification is, the more complex the organism becomes.
The higher the level of classification, the more closely related the organisms become
Select ALL the characteristics of the Fungi Kingdom.
decomposer
lives on land
cannot move about freely
autotroph
multicellular
