Scientists classify organisms according to their characteristics. The broadest category of classification is a kingdom. The char
t below lists some of the characteristics of each kingdom. The Six Kingdom Classification System
Kingdom Eubacteria Archaebacteria Protista Fungi Plantae Animalia
Cell Type prokaryotic prokaryotic eukaryotic eukaryotic eukaryotic eukaryotic
Cell Wall nearly all all some all all none
Cell Number unicellular unicellular unicellular

Movement some move with flagella some move with flagella cilia, flagella, or amoeboid do not move do not move muscle organs, cilia, flagella, etc
Reproduction asexually by binary fission asexually by fission, budding, or fragmentation varied methods of sexual and asexual reproduction, including binary fission, mitosis, and some meiosis asexually by mitosis (budding, fragmentation, spores) and sexually by meiosis predominantly sexual reproduction by meiosis (cones, seeds, and spores) with some asexual reproduction by mitosis predominantly sexual reproduction by meiosis with some asexual reproduction by mitosis (parthenogenesis)

According to the above chart, what is the main difference between the Eubacteria and Archaebacteria kingdoms and the Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia kingdoms?
changes of state are physical changes. they occur when matters absorb or loses energy. processes in which matter changes between liquid and solid states are freezing and melting period processes and which matter change between liquid and gases states are vaporization, evaporation, and condensation
