Why do some scientists think that the Kingdom Monera should be split into two kingdoms?
By consensus, it has already been split into two kingdoms. Some scientists believed (and many more now believe) that, by classifying the creatures of "Monera" into 2 separate kingdoms, confusion is avoided. This is not to imply that the old way was chaotic. However, there was sufficient evidence to suggest that this move would be helpful, and it has relieved some confusion in the classification of these creatures. There are too many differences in these creatures to continue to think of them as all belonging to one kingdom. For more specific insights behind this reasoning, try the links supplied.

What are the five kingdoms?
The five-kingdom system of classification is only one of a few, and might be superseded. To common knowledge, the five kingdoms of life are:Monera (bacteria)Protista (protists - algae and protozoa)Fungi (yeasts, slime molds, toadstools)Plantae (mosses, flowering plants, gymnosperms)Animalia (animals - sponges, jellyfish, worms, starfish, insects, arachnids, vertebrates and so on)These days, a six-kingdom system seems to be taking over. The kingdoms are:Archaea (archaebacteria)Bacteria (bacteria)Protista (protists)FungiPlantaeAnimaliaNote however that this is not very impressive since protists are so diverse that they should really be divided into perhaps 60 kingdoms themselves. Taxonomists are still working at protist classification.
Is the kingdom protista a true clade?
No, the 'Kingdom' Protista is not a clade or monophyletic group at all, most likely. It could be that it should be divided into about 60 separate kingdoms. 'Protista' was used as a catch-all for unclassifyable groups. This surely does not reflect reality and work is under way to properly classify the algae and protista that swarm in this improper group called Protista.
Should viruses be excluded from the 5 kingdom classification system?
Yes, viruses are not considered living organisms because they lack the ability to carry out essential life processes on their own, such as metabolism and reproduction. Therefore, they are typically not included in traditional classification systems like the five-kingdom system.
What domain are paramecium classified in?
Paramecium should be classified in the kingdom Protistaalong with the other protozoans.
What are all of the levels of classification systems for living organisms?
The term is taxonomy.An example of the hierarchy - classification of the house cat:Kingdom: AnimaliaPhylum: ChordataClass: MammaliaOrder: CarnivoraFamily: FelidaeGenus: FelisSpecies: Felis domesticus
What do many scientists suggest should be considered a separate kingdom because they are remarkably from all other bacteria?
Monera
How many kingdom classifications are there?
4 The Old, Middle, New and Ptolemaic Dynasty
What is bacteria's kingdom classification?
It is controversial, some people think that we should have two groups for bacteria, those names are Archaebacteria, and Eubacteria. Archaebacteria are very old and scientists believe these were the first cells ever! They can survive in very extreme conditions such as hot springs, salty waters, and places with very high acitic levels. Eubacteria are average, new, bacteria.The controversial part is that some people believe that we should just have 5 kingdoms, and that Archaebacteria, and Eubacteria should just be one kingdom, called Monera!Plantae
What are the 5 kingdoms of biology?
There should be only 5 kingdoms: Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista and Prokaryota. Unless you're talking about the different phyla/divisions within. maniwala tititlaan mo ak labat

Why do some biologists think that there are no more than five kingdoms?
The addition of the sixth kingdom is relatively recent in terms of scientific history. I have never met a biologist who believes that there are only five kingdoms (because scientists should be keeping up), but let's just say that those biologists think that there are only five kingdoms because they're old. That's right.
What two ways to scientists believe kingdoms should be divided?
vertebrates-backbone invertebrates no backbone
What kingdoms do bacteria make up?
That should be "What Kingdom are most bacteria a part of". Bacteria isn't really divided into Kingdoms, bacteria is considered a domain (which is higher than a Kingdom-we and plants, animals, fungus and amoeba are of the domain Eukaryotes) and phylla. Which phylla a particular bacterium belongs depends on whether they have an outer membrane, high or low guanine-cytosine content (substances which can also be found in DNA), whether they live in watery conditions, in soil, on the skins of animals and so on._____ALL bacteria belong to the kingdom bacteria, according to the 6 kingdom classification system. The six kingdoms are:Animalia, Plantae, Fungi,Protista, Archaea, BacteriaAll bacteria belong to the kingdom bacteria.
What caused scientists to divide the monera into two distinct groups?
The advancement in molecular biology techniques revealed that the Monera group was not a single, homogenous group. It was discovered that bacteria and archaea are genetically distinct and have significant differences in their cell structure, biochemistry, and genetic makeup. This led scientists to divide the Monera group into the bacteria and archaea domains.
What scientific invention caused scientist to decide that there should be more than two kingdoms?
The invention of the microscope allowed scientists to observe microorganisms, leading to the realization that there was greater diversity among living organisms than previously thought. This discovery prompted scientists to propose the classification of kingdoms beyond the original two kingdoms (Plantae and Animalia) to better reflect the diversity of life.
What kingdom do the one cell organisms belong to?
I'm pretty sure it's protists but if someone has a better answer you should post that too. Kingdom of Monera
What are the 6 kingdoms of biology?
1.) Archae - Prokaryotic organisms2.) Monera - Also prokaryotic3.) Protocista - Eukaryotic4.) Fungi - Eukaryotic5.) Plantae - Eukaryotic6.) Animalia - Eukaryotic____________________________I am not certain what system the above answer is referring to, it seems like more of a combination of terms from the old 5 kingdom system and the more recently adapted 6 kingdom system. As far as I know, the six kingdom system includes:-Animalia-Plantae-Fungi-Protista-Bacteria-Archaea
