Adaptation
Inherited trait that increases the organisms chance for survival
Artificial selection
Humans have picked traits they desire in plants and animals
What are the six kingdoms
Archaebacteria Eubacteria Protist Fungi Animals Plants
Archaebacteria

Eubacteria
Singular cellular;lack nuclei, break down dead things, prokaryotic
Protist
Extremely diverse, eukaryotes, produce large amounts of oxygen in the ocean
Fungi
Eukaryotic-release digestive enzymes to digest material;yeast and mushrooms
Plants
Gymnosperms
Angiosperms
Gymnosperms-cones
Angiosperms-flowers
Animals
Invertebrate
Vertebrate
