6 Kingdoms of life

       






















 Hey! It's Zeina:) And this is my first blog post about science. I'm going to be talking about the 6 kingdoms of life. I'm going to go over all of the kingdoms, and things that's special about them. So a long time ago, scientists divided all living things into six large kingdoms.They did this because it helps them to be more organized. Hope you like it! 
                                         (I'll try not to bore you) 


For example, when you walk into a Library, it would take forever to try to find the books you want. Now, they have computers or numbers on the books. I bet no one would be reading these days. Because no one wants to spend 3 hours just to find a book. See how important it is? The things we do and the way we do things would defiantly be different.


 See?? Look at this library for instance!
 I don't think anyone would enjoy looking 
threw piles and piles of books.
 But luckily you don't have to!!
 I hope you see the difference. 
Because I defiantly do..  
 

 The first one is called the animal kingdom. Which is obviously the kingdom for animals. The members of the animal kingdom are made up of many cells, their cells have a nucleus that is contained inside a membrane.


 Next up is the plant kingdom. The plant kingdom's members are made of many cells that have an outer wall. they also have a membrane-bound.


 Then there's the fungi kingdom. It contains single celled organisms that reproduce by spores. Fungi have cells that are surrounded by cell walls, like plants.


 Next is the Protist kingdom. They are made up of one-celled (unicellular) organisms & simple many-celled (multicellular) organisms. The nucleus of the Protist's cell is enclosed in a nuclear membrane. 


 Only two more left! So here's the Archaebacteria. It's a big word... Right?! It includes single-celled organisms. The name means "ancient bacteria". Scientists think that these were like the first forms of life on earth billions of years ago.  

Now, last but not least... Is Eubacteria. Something cool about this one, It was made pretty recently. If you look in most science textbooks, or if you look up information, they usually just have 5 kingdoms. Anyway, let me skip to the science fact, like Archeabacteria,they are one-celled and lack a nuclear membrane.


Ok! That's about it. Sorry if you thought it was boring. But for the people that have had blogs for a while, and have some criticism.. Please tell me:) I think I did pretty good for my first blog.. And i know it wasn't perfect. So ya please give me you're opinion! So I think I've wrote enough.. thanks reading my blog!
