How do scientists classify organisms into different Kingdoms?

Scientists use a variety of criteria, such as genetic information, cell structure, and metabolic processes to classify organisms into different Kingdoms. This classification is based on similarities and differences in these criteria among organisms. The current system of classification uses three domains (Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya) and further divides organisms into six Kingdoms (Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, Archaea, Bacteria) based on these criteria.
