Protists
PROTISTA
Bacteria are classified in the kingdom Bacteria.
Amoebas are classified as protists.
Protista is a kingdom within the domain Eukarya that includes a diverse group of single-celled organisms. It is a polyphyletic group, meaning that its members do not share a common ancestor. Protists are classified based on their characteristics and can include algae, amoebas, and protozoa.
Amoebas are classified as protists, belonging to the kingdom Protista. They are single-celled organisms that move and feed by using pseudopods, which are temporary projections of their cytoplasm.
The study of how living things are classified is called taxonomy. Taxonomy involves organizing organisms into categories based on their characteristics and evolutionary relationships. The system of classification includes the hierarchy of domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species.
No, an amoeba is not classified under the Monera kingdom. Amoebas belong to the Protista kingdom. Monera is a traditional kingdom that includes bacteria and archaea.
The amoebas are in the protista kingdom.
An amoeba is a cell that can alter its shape by extending and retracting pseudopods. The term describes a characteristic but does provide a place for it in the taxonomy of organisms. Organisms as diverse as protozoa, algae, animals, and fungi all have members that qualify as Amoebas. SOME algae are amoebas but most amoebas are NOT algae.
Amoebas belong to the kingdom Protista. They are single-celled organisms that lack a definite shape and are classified based on their movement and feeding habits.
