The document is a student worksheet on classifying living organisms into the five kingdoms - Prokaryotes, Protoctista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. It instructs the student to create a table summarizing the key differences between each kingdom based on their mode of nutrition, cell structure, reproduction methods, and other characteristics. The table is then filled out with information on the different characteristics of each kingdom, such as Protists being both autotrophs and heterotrophs, Fungi having cell walls made of chitin, and plants and animals having cell walls or not.

Activity: Five Kingdoms

Create a table summarizing the differences between the different kingdoms. Put the five kingdoms along the top of the table, and
the different characteristics down the sides. You can then put ticks, crosses, comments against each characteristic for each
kingdom.
