Scientists organise all life on Earth into five main kingdoms based on how organisms are built and how they get their food. Think of it like sorting everything alive into five massive categories - from tiny bacteria to massive elephants!
The key differences between kingdoms come down to a few important features. Eukaryotic organisms have cells with a proper nucleus (like a control centre), whilst prokaryotic organisms don't have this organised structure. How organisms feed themselves also matters - autotrophs make their own food like plants do, heterotrophs must eat other things to survive, and mixotrophs can do both depending on what's available.
Animalia includes all the creatures you'd expect - humans, dogs, cats, and millions of other species. These are all multicellular, eukaryotic heterotrophs that need to consume other organisms to stay alive. Plantae covers everything from tiny ferns to massive oak trees - they're multicellular, eukaryotic autotrophs that create their own food through photosynthesis.
Fungi might surprise you - this kingdom includes both unicellular yeasts and multicellular mushrooms and moulds. They're eukaryotic heterotrophs that break down dead material. Protists are the mixed bag - some are unicellular like amoeba, others are multicellular like certain algae, and they can be mixotrophs. Finally, Prokaryotae includes bacteria and archaea - simple, unicellular organisms without a nucleus.
Quick tip Remember that all living things share some basics - they all have cytoplasm and cell membranes, and all except prokaryotes have a nucleus and mitochondria!

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

Not only did it help me find the answer but it also showed me alternative ways to solve it. I was horrible in math and science but now I have an a in both subjects. Thanks for the help🤍🤍

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend

Best app if you're in Highschool or Junior high. I have been using this app for 2 school years and it's the best, it's good if you don't have anyone to help you with school work.😋🩷🎀

This app is phenomenal down to the correct info and the various topics you can study! I greatly recommend it for people who struggle with procrastination and those who need homework help. It has been perfectly accurate for world 1 history as far as I’ve seen! Geometry too!
