There's been a certain degree of talk about kingdoms of life: how life
is generally classified. I think the most commonly accepted version is
now:

    Type        General Characteristics
    --------    -----------------------

    Animals     Multicellular, no cell walls, no photosynthesis, usually mobile
		You know what an aminal is.

    Plants      Multicellular, cell walls, photosynthesis, generally sessile
		You know what a plant is.

    Fungi       Multicellular, cell walls, no photosynthesis, generally sessile
		Fungi of all sorts -- mushrooms, etc.

    Protists    One-celled life with a cell nucleus
		Protozoa, yeasts, most one-celled algae

    Monerans    One-celled life, no cell nucleus
		Bacteria, cyanobacteria ('blue-green algae')
