Kingdom Prokaryotae can be distinguished by: * Prokayotic cell structure * lack the nuclei and chromosomes of eukaryotic cells and have smaller ribosomes * Have tendency to spread genetic element across species barriers by sexual conjugation viral transduction, etc. * produce rapidly by binary fission and absence of sex * evolved variety of metabolism types * taxonomically identified by their appearance and biochemical differences
Distinguishing characters of fungi are:
1.It is a plant like microscopic multicellular organism living on a nutrient substrate.
2.They are achlorophyllous,heterotrophic thallophytes.
3.Every fungi contains mass of interwoven hyphae is called mycelium.
4.The mycelium may be unicellular or multicellular.
5.Fungi have definie cell wall made up of chitin.
6They have reserved food material in the form of glycogen or oil-droplets
7.They reproduce vegetatively by fragmentation,asexually by spores and sexually by gamates.
Multicelluar organisms (Most can photosynthesize and contain chlorophyll)
Cell wall made of cellulose: Food is stored as starch
Subdivided into two major divisions based on tissue structure: Bryophytes (non-vascular) and Tracheophytes (vascular) plants
Kingdom Protista can be distinguished by:
- Unicellular or simple multicellular structures
- Some can survive in harsh conditions
- Found anywhere there is moisture
Kingdom Protista consists mostly of single-celled and simple multicelluular organisms.
The 5 kingdoms are: Fungi, Plantae, Protoctista, Prokaryotae, & Animalia. Algae have features of both plants and animals, but they are generally grouped in the plantae kingdom.
All organisms that cannot be classified to be included on the eukaryotic kingdoms will be categorized under kingdom protista. This was the reason kingdom protista was called a dumping ground.
Protista. However, not all members of the kingdom protista are unicellular. Some may be multicellular, or may even live in colonies. Some members of fungi are also unicellular, such as yeast.
animalia protista
It is in the protista kingdom.
paramecium and amoebas belong to protista kingdom because they both are protists.
What Kingdom is similar to Kingdom Protista
Kingdom Protista consists mostly of single-celled and simple multicelluular organisms.
The amoebas are in the protista kingdom.
Plantae (plante is not a kingdom) contain vacuoles, it is one of the distinguishing features of plants in general.

Kingdom Protista
There are several groups, including the reds (which include many seaweeds, including the coralline algae), greens (that include both marine, aquatic and terrestrial species, and are related to land plants), [ and the browns (which also include many seaweeds, including kelp). They are in the protista kingdom. They were first in the plantae kingdom and have moved a lot and been disputed about, but they have been decided to be in the protista kingdom. ]
the protists or protista kingdom
The Sargassum seaweed is an alga. Algae are members of the kingdom Protista.
It is in the protista kingdom.
