Shows how biologists classify all living organisms into five basic categories or kingdoms: plants, animals, fungi, protista and monera. Explains how and why the five-kingdom system was developed from the...
Describes the two main classification schemes in current use: Woese and Whittaker. Woese divides all organisms into three domains, which represent three main pathways of evolution: the archae, the bacteria...
Many marine organisms have evolved to exhibit bioluminescence putting on incredible deep sea displays of flashing lights, sparkling blooms and smoke-like clouds of shimmering blue. Inspired by this, marine...
