Five Kingdom

Classification
Welcome to the fascinating world of the Five Kingdom Classification! Join us on
a journey to explore and understand the diverse kingdoms of life.

Kingdom Monera
Examples
Notable examples include E. coli,
Salmonella, and cyanobacteria. These
organisms play vital roles in various
ecological processes.
1 Characteristics
Monera consists of prokaryotic organisms,
including bacteria and blue-green algae.
2 They lack a nucleus and membrane-bound
organelles.
3 Importance
Monera serve as decomposers, nitrogen
fixers, and producers. Some bacteria are
used in biotechnology, medicine, and food
production.
Kingdom Protista
Diversity
Protista is a diverse kingdom
comprising eukaryotic organisms
that don't fit into other kingdoms.
They exhibit various forms of
reproduction.
Examples
Amoebas, diatoms, and algae are
some examples. Protists are found
in a wide range of habitats, from
oceans to freshwater
environments.
Symbiotic Relationships
Certain protists engage in
symbiotic relationships, forming
mutualistic interactions with other
organisms, such as corals and
termites.
Kingdom Fungi

3 Examples

Mushrooms, yeasts, molds, and lichens are some examples of fungi.

They have unique reproductive structures and modes of nutrition.
Kingdom Plantae
Diversity
From towering trees to delicate flowers,
plants exhibit incredible diversity,
occupying various ecological niches
around the world.
1 Adaptations
Plants have evolved numerous adaptations
to survive on land, including the
2 development of roots, leaves, and efficient
reproductive structures.
3 Photosynthesis
Plants utilize photosynthesis to convert
sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into
oxygen and energy-rich molecules,
sustaining life on Earth.
Kingdom Animalia

Fungi 144,000 Eukaryotic, heterotrophic

Plantae 390,000 Eukaryotic, multicellular

Animalia 1.7 million Eukaryotic, heterotrophic,

The Five Kingdom Classification provides a framework for understanding the immense biodiversity and
interconnectedness of life on our planet.
