Answer:

-8 taxonomic levels: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species

- 6 kingdoms: Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protist, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia.

Explanation:

Taxonomy is the study of different organisms, their classification into categories according to their morphological and molecular characteristics and their evolutionary relationships, and assigning to each them a binomial name.

The categories where organisms are classified into are:

Domains are the highest taxonomic category in which living beings can be grouped or divided. There are three domains: archaea, bacteria, and eukarya.

- The archaea domain is composed of prokaryotic unicellular microorganisms that lack a nucleus, nuclear membrane, and organelles, but they have a cell wall that protects the cell. These organisms are capable of inhabiting in places with extreme temperature, salinity, acidity, or pH, among others. They reproduce asexually.

- The bacteria domain is composed of a wide group of unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms with a simple structure and sized between 1 to 10 micrometers. These organisms lack a nucleus, nuclear membrane, and organelles. They only present plasmids and ribosomes. They have a cell membrane and a cell wall that protects the cell. Some of them can also present a capsule. They reproduce asexually.

- The eukarya domain is composed of all the unicellular or pluricellular organisms that have eukaryotic cells that characterize by having a well-defined nucleus surrounded by a complex biological membrane. They also present organelles delimitated by membranes. These organisms reproduce asexually and sexually.

Kingdom: Includes different phyla closely relates. The bacteria domain includes the Eubacteria kingdom. The archaea domain includes the archaebacteria kingdom. Finally, the eukarya domain is divided into four kingdoms: Protist, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.

Phylum: Includes different classes closely related.

Class: Includes different orders closely relates.
Order: Includes different families closely related
Family: Includes different genera closely relates
Genus: Includes many species.
Species

An urban planner wants to build some new homes in a woodland area but wants to do so in a manner that is the least disruptive to

Julli [10]

Answer:

Avoid fragmenting the forest by building the new homes together on one side of the forest

Explanation:

Fragmentation of forest involves breaking of large continuous forests into smaller, ecologically less diverse units. This often happen as a result of human factors such as road construction, agriculture, building construction, and so on.

Forest fragmentation has several effects including, reduction in forest's health, degradation of habitats loss of biodiversity, among others.

Hence, the best mode of action is for the urban planner to build the homes clustered together on one side of the forest to avoid fragmenting the forest.
