* This is from wikipedia:
Aristotle divided all living things between plants (which generally do not move), and animals (which often are mobile to catch their food). In Linnaeus' system, these became the Kingdoms Vegetabilia (later Metaphyta or Plantae) and Animalia (also called Metazoa).

What else can I help you with?
What is the kingdom of species?
The kingdom of species does not exist. In biological classification, the highest level is the kingdom, followed by phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. Each species belongs to a specific kingdom, such as Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, etc.
What is the largest phylum?
The largest phylum in the animal kingdom is Arthropoda, which includes insects, spiders, crustaceans, and other related organisms. It is estimated that over 80% of described animal species belong to this phylum.
How do organisms get into phylums?
Classification Goes in order: Kingdom then Phylum, etc. so lets say the organism is a monkey it would belong in the animal kingdom, Now that Kingdom is established next comes Phylum. As it is an animal with a spine the Phylum would be Chordate (vertebrate). The phylum is a descriptor used to help classify things. Now if it was a type of sea sponge it would still be in the animal Kingdom, but the Phylum would be different a sponge is in the phylum Porifera. It is almost like playing 20 questions.Each step in the classification process narrows down the choices of what the organism can be. Phylum is the second step to getting to what an organism is.Classification is not that bad if you remember this little ditty: Kangaroos Play Cellos, Orangutans Fiddle, Gorillas Sing.Kangaroos = Kingdom, Play = Phylum, Cello = Class, Orangutans = Order, Fiddle = Family,Gorillas = Genus, Sing = Species
What is the kingdom phylum sub phylum class order family gunus spicies?
Kingdoms, phyla, subphyla etc are members of the hierarchy of Linnaean classification. Each, in itself is called a taxon. The basic order of such a hierarchy is; Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species But there are intermediates, such as Subkingdom, Subphylum, Superorder, Suborder, Infraorder etc, all with prefixes Sub, or Super or Infra There are others too. For example, cohorts fit between classes and orders and tribes fit between family and genus. Below the species level there are also forms and varieties.
What is systematic classification?
Systematic classification is a method of organizing, grouping, and ranking items in a set. For example, in biology the hierarchical structure of Kingdom, Phylum, Class, etc., is a systematic classification of living organisms.
Why do scientist use a classification system?
Scientists use a classification system to identify animals and plants. They classify them by a Kingdom, Phylum, Class, etc.
What are two species that are in the same kingdom phylum and class?
Kingdom Animalia, phylum Arthropoda, class Insecta; aphid, butterfly. Phylum Chordata, class Aves; seagull, eagle. Etc.
What is the order of taxa from first to last?
Domain (least specific) Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species (most specific) There are also subphylum, subclass, subfamily, etc. but these are the main categories.
What is the kingdom phylum class order family genus species for plants?
'Plants' are a Kingdom in of themselves, Kingdom Plantae. There are hundreds of thousands of individual species in this Kingdom, across a range of Phyla, Orders, etc.
What is the kingdom phylum class family order and genus of benzene?
Benzene is not an organism - it is an organic chemical compound. Benzene is a 6 carbon ring, with the molecular formula C6H6. Only living organisms are classified using kingdom, phylum, etc.
What is the first phylum with a complete digestive system?
incomplete= cniderians and platyhelminthes complete = every other metazoan. e.g. nematoda, mammals, etc
What is the kingdom of species?

What animals are classified under order?
Be more specific. Animals are classified under the kingdom animalia (is that spelled right?). After that phylum, order etc. it gets more specific
What is the kingdom phylum sub phylum class order family gunus spicies?
Kingdoms, phyla, subphyla etc are members of the hierarchy of Linnaean classification. Each, in itself is called a taxon. The basic order of such a hierarchy is; Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species But there are intermediates, such as Subkingdom, Subphylum, Superorder, Suborder, Infraorder etc, all with prefixes Sub, or Super or Infra There are others too.

Which class does dinosaur belong to?
Dinosaurs belong to the clade Dinosauria. The old kingdom/phylum/class etc. divisions have come to be regarded as more a detriment than a help to taxonomic classification.
