The 5 kingdoms (bacteria, plants, animals, fungi, protists) are separated mainly by how the organisms attain the energy they need to survive and how their cells are structured.
The Bacteria kingdom is made up of prokaryotic organisms. This means that their cells lack the structure that eukaryotic cells (our cells for example) have, such as a nucleus and mitochondria. All the other kingdoms consist of eukaryotic organisms that do have structure to their cells.
The differences between these eukaryotic kingdoms (plants, animals, and fungi) are based on how they aquire energy to live. Plants make their own energy from sunlight by using photosynthesis. Animals and fungi are very similar in that they must ingest other organisms in order to get the energy they need. The main differences are that animals are mobile and eat food whereas fungi are immobile and absorb their food.
The protist kingdom, though also eukaryotic, has little rhyme or reason to it. It consists of mostly single-celled organisms that don't really fit in any of the other kingdoms at all.
