Organisms in the Kingdom Plantae are eukaryotes and can produce their own food. Which of the following organisms is classified in the Kingdom Plantae? club moss
The frog pictured above is larger than 1.5 inches and smaller than 6 inches. Use this information, along with the dichotomous key shown and your own observations from the picture, to determine the frog's species name. Bufo boreas
Which of the following characteristics would an organism classified in the Kingdom Plantae most likely exhibit? multicellular, eukaryotic, photosynthetic
What is the species name of a frog that is between 1.5 and 6 inches long, has warts on its skin, and has a triangular mark between its eyes? Acris crepitans
When animals share many classification designations, the animals have a high degree of relatedness. Which species are the most closely related according to the dichotomous key shown above? C. lupus and C. latrans
