The Plant Kingdom Plants are multicellular organisms that use chlorophyll in specialized cellular structures called chloroplasts to capture sunlight energy and convert it into organic matter. We refer to plants as autotrophs(self-feeders). Also included in the Plant Kingdom are algae that are not multicellular, but are cells with a nucleus (unlike bacteria).

Besides the algae, most plants are divided into one of two groups, the nonvascular plants (such as mosses) and the vascular plants (such as most crops, trees, and flowering plants). Vascular plants have specialized tissue that allows them to transport water and nutrients from their roots to their leaves and back again, even when the plant is several hundred feet tall. Nonvascular plants cannot do this and remain very small in size. Vascular plants are able to inhabit moist as well as dry environments, whereas nonvascular plants are mostly found in moist, marshy areas because they have no vascular tissue to transport water.

Is Use of mRNA during protein productiona a characteristic of members of the plant kingdom that distinguishes them from members of the animal kingdom?

No, the use of mRNA during protein production is a fundamental process that is shared by both plant and animal kingdoms. mRNA serves as a template for protein synthesis in both plant and animal cells through the process of translation.

What is the characteristic of members of the plant kingdom that distingishes them from members of the animal kingdom?

Most of the members of plant kingdom have cell wall and perform photosynthesis whereas members of animal kingdom do not have cell wall and also they do not perform photosynthesis and one more thing animals do not make thier own food means they are heterotrophs and plants make thier awn food so they are autotrophs.


Members of the plant kingdom are either single-celled or multicellular I don't know which one?

Members of the plant kingdom are multicellular organisms. They are made up of complex, differentiated cells that work together to carry out various functions like photosynthesis, reproduction, and growth.
