Where Organisms Live
This part of Earth can support living things.
What is the biosphere?
This is considered the hierarchy of classification.
What is kingdom?
Organisms in this kingdom eat other organisms and their remains.
What are animals?
All organisms in this classification are multicellular that get their food by eating other organisms.
What are animals?
Organisms from this kingdom are used to make food & medicines.
What are fungi?

What is a species?
These are the groups of classification in order from broadest group to the narrowest group.
What are Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species?

What is nonvascular plant?
When an organism survives and reproduces in its environment
What is an adaptation?
A grouping of things according to their similarities.
What is classification?
This kingdom is made up of single-celled organisms that live in harsh environments.
What is archaebacteria?

What are vertebrates?
These one-celled organisms form much of the gas and oil we use today
What are protists?
Some scientists believe this percentage of all species to ever live on the Earth no longer exist.
What is 99%?
Of the two groups--phylum or family-- this group would have a greater variety of organisms.
What is phylum?
This kingdom has organisms that can be "helfpul" and "harmful" at the same time.
What is eubacteria?
The animal kingdom is divided into almost 35 of these.
What are phyla?
These organisms can cause diseases, but many are healthy. Some make vitamins for the human body.
