Animals can be invertebrates and vertebrates, single-celled and multicellular, their cells lack walls, and they break down glucose through respiration.

Plants are multicellular organisms. Their cells are protected by walls that allow them to grow bigger. They make their own food through photosynthesis, so they don’t need to respire.

Fungi is the plural of fungus. In this kingdom, cells have walls. They obtain energy through photosynthesis and the break down of other organic materials.

Protists are single-celled organisms that may look like animals, such as paramecium and protozoans. Others look like plants, for example algae and amoeba. There are also fungi-like protists.

Monera is the order of bacteria (singular = bacterium). Some photosynthesize while others respire. Their nucleus doesn’t have a nuclear membrane.
