Please do ^^

Humans, after hundreds of years of constant effort, have successfully polluted all bodies of water on Earth. As a result, almost all previously known species of plant, animal, and other life have become extinct. Through natural selection, genetic engineering, and selective breeding programs, a portion of the Earth has been successfully repopulated. The following organisms are all that remain: 1. Photosynthetic sun-basking sharks. Their green fins have chlorophyll to convert sunlight to energy (autotrophs) 2. Chemosynthetic goldfish that convert pollution to food (autotrophs) 3. Aquatic humanoids whose main diet is aqua-wheat and basking sharks. They have fins instead of legs (heterotrophs) 4. Aqua-wheat: one of the few plants that remain, it is similar to algae. 5. Terrestrial Humanoids with 4 arms, their diet consists of butter-roaches and fuzzy hamsters. 6. Tentacled aqua humanoids, they only feed on aqua-wheat and have tentacles for arms and legs. 7. Waterroaches that feed on humanoid waste. 8. Giant Aqua-spiders that live in water and feed on goldfish and basking sharks. 9. Green-haired rats that are photosynthetic. 10. Parasitic mosquitoes that feed off any humanoid 11. Ten-legged fleas that live on the photosynthetic rats and drink blood. 12. Poison Grass - this plant is a hybrid between grass and poison ivy. The plants are toxic to almost everything (autotrophs) 13. Fuzzy hamsters with green hair that use the sunlight to make their food, thought to be related to the rats. 14. Butter-roaches: genetic engineering created these butterfly-like creatures from Waterroaches. Butter-roaches eat poison grass.

Create a taxonomic scheme using only kingdom, phylum, genus, and species. The intermediate categories have been eliminated since the total number of species has been drastically reduced. (Two Kingdoms are recommended). Use the numbers of each organism to identify where they are placed on your chart.

tigerlover:

Alright. Animals are separated in kingdoms. The Six Kingdoms: Plants, Animals, Protists, Fungi, Archaebacteria, Eubacteria. You are probably quite familiar with the members of this kingdom as it contains all the plants that you have come to know - flowering plants, mosses, and ferns. Plants are all multicellular and consist of complex cells. Here are your kingdoms.

|dw:1520440533959:dw| can you please show me how i put them in a chart like this

tigerlover:

Just put them in different ones and assign each animal to its correct Kingdom. Not as hard as it seems ^^

Sarah10:

will i have to break it down to phylum , genus etc?

Sarah10:

as i go further down.. and im kind of confused how will put them into 2 kingdoms

tigerlover:

I would assume to just put them from greatest to least but in this case, it doesnt seem one is bigger or better then the other.
