2. Biological Classification Classification The process of grouping living organisms into convenient categories based on simple characters is known as classification. 1. Two kingdom classification Carolus Linnaeus divided all living things into two kingdoms- Plantae and Animalia. 2. Five kingdom classification R.H. Whittaker divided all living things into five kingdoms- Monera‚ Protista‚ Fungi‚ Plantae‚ and Animalia. The main criteria for classification included o cell structure o thallus

dioxide‚ also known as silica (from the Latin silex)‚ is an oxide of silicon with a chemical formula of SiO2 and has been known for its hardness for centuries. Silica is most commonly found in nature as sand or quartz‚ as well as in the cell walls of diatoms. Silica is the riches mineral in the Earth’s crust. The crystal structure of Silicon Dioxide changes as the compound heats up. The original structure is trigonal‚ but when it heats up to 573C°‚ its structure

Phytoplankton From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation‚ search Diatoms are one of the most common types of phytoplankton. Phytoplankton are the autotrophic component of the plankton community. The name comes from the Greek words φυτόν (phyton)‚ meaning "plant"‚ and πλαγκτός (planktos)‚ meaning "wanderer" or "drifter".[1] Most phytoplankton are too small to be individually seen with the unaided eye. However‚ when present in high enough numbers‚ they may appear as a green discoloration
