Match the following kingdoms with their classification in the text:

Kingdom Monera = Prokaryotes Kingdom Protista = Unicellular organisms Kingdom Fungi = Non-photosynthetic organisms Kingdom Plantae = Photosynthetic organisms

Match the following historical figures with their contribution to biological classification:

Aristotle = Used simple morphological characters for classification Linnaeus = Developed a Two Kingdom system of classification

Match the following terms with their description in the text:

Eukaryotes = Not distinguished in the Two Kingdom system Prokaryotes = Included in the Two Kingdom system Unicellular organisms = Not categorized in the Two Kingdom system Multicellular organisms = Not categorized in the Two Kingdom system
