Default Old Sawdust - not about sawdust that's for sure

One thing I'm not quite clear, can fungus be group into plant, and
bacteria into animal?

Regards,
Wong


My understanding is that neither fungi nor bacteria fall into the
plant or animal kingdoms in a five kingdoms naming system, (they each
would reside in separate kingdoms). In a three divisions naming
system, plants, animals and fungi would be described as belonging to
the same domain.

Regards.


if you go by the microbiologists, I believe they go with 3 kingdoms
(superkingdoms ?), two kinds of bacteria and everything else, based on
genetic studies. But if you go with biologists (according to _Five
Kingdoms: An Ilustrated Guide to the Phyla of Life on Earth_, 3rd ed. 1998,
Margulis, Lynn and Karlene V. Schwartz), the five kingdoms are bacteria,
protists, animals, fungi and plants. (I have no idea if the book has any
currency with real biologists and I certainly am not one.)
