Bacteria ensure that our bodies function normally. These microbes reproduce at an alarming rate under the right conditions. Most reproduce asexually by binary fission. Bacteria have varied and distinct bacterial cell shapes including round, spiral, and rod shapes. The protista kingdom includes a very diverse group of organisms.

Some have characteristics of animals protozoa , while others resemble plants algae or fungi slime molds. These eukaryotic organisms have a nucleus that is enclosed within a membrane. Some protists have organelles that are found in animal cells mitochondria , while others have organelles that are found in plant cells chloroplasts. Protists that are similar to plants are capable of photosynthesis. Many protists are parasitic pathogens that cause disease in animals and humans.

Others exist in commensalistic or mutualistic relationships with their host. Fungi include both unicellular yeast and molds and multicellular mushrooms organisms.

Unlike plants, fungi are not capable of photosynthesis. Fungi are important for the recycling of nutrients back into the environment. They decompose organic matter and acquire nutrients through absorption. While some fungal species contain toxins that are deadly to animals and humans, others have beneficial uses, such as for the production of penicillin and related antibiotics. Plants are extremely important to all life on earth as they provide oxygen, shelter, clothing, food, and medicine for other living organisms.

This diverse group contains vascular and nonvascular plants , flowering and nonflowering plants, as well as seed-bearing and non-seed bearing plants. As is true of most photosynthetic organisms, plants are primary producers and support life for most food chains in the planet's major biomes. This kingdom includes animal organisms. These multicellular eukaryotes depend on plants and other organisms for nutrition. Most animals live in aquatic environments and range in size from tiny tardigrades to the extremely large blue whale.

Organisms are classified in three domains and six kingdoms fill the table below and explain the differences between kingdom Eubacteria,kingdom Archaebacteria,kingdom protista, kingdom fungi, kingdom plantae,kingdom Animalia. Add comment. Hi Jason,. Please check the following site that explains these kingdomss and their differences in a nice table.

The differences are that some of these kingdoms are autotrophs produce their own food through biological processes , while the others are heterotrophs hunt and gather food.
