Plants and animals project: plant and animal research the plantae and animalia kingdoms encompass a very diverse group of species. there are over a million species altogether, and more are being discovered. plants include trees, shrubs, bushes, flowers, grass, etc. animals include sea urchins, mollusks, insects, fish, birds, mammals, etc. for this project, you will narrow your search down and choose one plant and one animal to research and discuss in detail. directions choose one plant and one animal and write a paper that includes both using 300-500 words. in your paper, discuss the following: general (common) name of your plant/animal and taxonomic species name (all 7 levels of classification) of your plant/animal plant—vascular or nonvascular; animal—invertebrate, chordate, or vertebrate) brief description (physical characteristics; habitat(s); eating habits, if applicable) include a labeled model showing the organelles of your plant/animal reproduction method(s) as a conclusion for your paper, decide which of your organisms, in your opinion, is most important to life on earth. explain your reasons.

The kingdom animalia (=metazoa) is one of a handful of lineages rooted far back in the branching "tree" that represents the history of life on earth. this lineage that is composed of those organisms we know as "animals" represents one of the three major origins of multicellularity (the other two large and diverse groups of multicellular organisms are the fungi and the green plants).it is difficult to list characteristics that apply to all animals, since various branches of the animal tree have undergone a range of significant modifications. however, most animals obtain energy from other organisms. they generally feed on them as predators (killing and eating a prey item); parasites, including herbivores feeding on plants (feeding on their "prey" without killing it, at least not immediately); or detritivores (ingesting tiny bits of decomposing organic material such as fallen leaves). in contrast to animals, most plants make their own food, through the extraordinary process of photosynthesis, using energy captured from the sun; most fungi break down decaying organic material (without ingesting it) into its chemical constituents and absorb released nutrients. animal cells lack a rigid cell wall (some form of which is typical of plants and most fungi) and their cell biology and physiology differ in a variety of ways from other organisms.
