Animalia

Multicellular eukaryotes, including animals and humans, heterotrophic, and capable of movement.

Plantae

Multicellular eukaryotes obtaining energy through photosynthesis, converting sunlight into chemical energy.

Fungi

Multicellular or unicellular heterotrophic microorganisms with chitin in cell walls, including molds, mushrooms, and yeast.

Protista

Unicellular microorganisms that may form colonies, not fitting clearly into animal, plant, or fungi categories, including amoeba, algae, and mold.

Viruses

Non-living entities replicating within a host, containing a capsid with genetic material but lacking cellular structure.
