	Kingdom (biology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In biology, a kingdom or regnum is the top-level, or nearly the top-level, taxon of organisms in scientific classification.
		Originally two kingdoms were distinguished: the Animalia for animals, and the Vegetabilia or Plantae for plants.
		When single-celled organisms were first discovered, they were split between the two kingdoms: mobile forms in the animal phylum Protozoa, and colored algae and bacteria in the plant division Thallophyta or Protophyta.

	Plant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Since then, it has become clear that the Plantae as originally defined included several unrelated groups, and the fungi and several groups of algae were removed to new kingdoms.
		However, they are not classified within the kingdom plantae but in the kingdom protista instead.
		The kingdom Plantae is now usually taken to mean this monophyletic group, as shown above.

	Kingdom Plantae (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The plant kingdom, one of four eukaryotic kingdoms, is composed of multicellular, autotrophic organisms that photosynthesize to fix inorganic carbon (from atmospheric CO) into organic molecules.
		Angiosperms, the most recent evolutionary branch of the plant kingdom, are the flowering plants that now dominate the plant world (80% of all plant are angiosperms).
		Hence, the Kingdom Plantae has immense diversity, and its organisms are the foundation of the cycles of energy on Earth as well as the fixation of organic carbon, the basis for all life.

	BioEd Online Slides: Plantae, plants, kingdom, vascular tissue, taxonomy
		Organisms are divided into each of five kingdoms based on defining characteristics, such as: cell type; cell structures; whether the organism is unicellular, multicellular, or has both forms; and nutrition.
		The Kingdom Plantae includes the mosses, seed ferns, conifers, flowering plants and related groups.
		The Plant Kingdom is often separated into bryophytes (mosses and liverworts), pteridophytes (ferns), and seed plants.

	Kingdom Plantae
		Kingdom Plantae contains nearly 300,000 different species of plants.
		Although this does not make it the largest kingdom, many might argue that it just may be the most important one.
		In the process known as "photosynthesis ", plants use the energy of the Sun to convert water and carbon dioxide into food (sugars) and oxygen.

	Introduction to the Plantae (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The Plantae includes all land plants: mosses, ferns, conifers, flowering plants, and so on—an amazing range of diverse forms.
		With more than 250,000 species, they are second in size only to the arthropoda.
		It is the plants which produce and maintain the terrestrial environment as we know it.

	Kingdom Plantae (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Plants were probably the first organisms to colonize land (approximately 420 million years ago).
		The Plantae include the green algae, nontracheophytes and tracheophytes.
		The plants are divided into divisions, which are equivalent to phyla (recall the category designations kingdom, phylum, etc.).

	Kingdoms Of Life
		All the kingdoms of eukaryotes, including Protista (Protoctista), Fungi, Plantae and Animalia, are placed in the domain Eukarya.
		Some members of the Kingdom Fungi (in the fungal classes Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes) are associated with algal cells of the Kingdom Protista (in the algal division Chlorophtya) and/or prokaryotic cyanobacteria of the Kingdom Monera.
		The vast majority of the plant kingdom are vascular, with tubular, water-conducting cells called xylem tissue.

		Kingdom Plantae includes all organisms which are truly multicellular and photosynthetic exept for algal protists.
		They are complex autotrophs preparing food material by photosynthesis for themselves as well as for rest of the other organisms.
		They are found in all the types of environment: aquatic algae, amphibian mosses, and terrestrial ferns and seed-bearing plants.

		The situation was made worse by the massive breeding of commercial hybrids throughout the years, and more recently, the creation of transgenic plants.
		Kingdom Plantae, is an effort to create a photo depository of natural plant species that were once endear to us.
		We should learn to appreciate the beauty of the natural form, and learn to make full use of what the nature has to offer us.

		Note: An alternations of generations occurs in members of the algae, fungi and plant kingdoms.
		For example, the edible red alga called nori is actually the haploid gametophyte phase that alternates with a minute, filamentous sporophyte form that lives inside sea shells.
		Until further notice, continue to use the Kingdom Fungi for the divisions Myxomycota and Oomycota on the Wayne's Word biology and botany exams.

	Natural Perspective: Plant Kingdom
		Classification of the plant kingdom can be especially confusing to the amateur naturalist.
		Around 30,000 plants are classified as monocots including many of the prettiest members of kingdom Plantae: orchids, lilies, irises, palms and even the Bird-of-Paradise plant.
		Names, however, are constantly changing in the field of Taxonomy, and no doubt many of these names are disputed or have changed since 1988.
