Part II
Refer to Figure 18-13 Page 460 – 461 in your classroom text to create your own diagram of the Domains and Kingdoms. Be sure to include:
• Labels for the Domains
• A key for the Kingdoms
• Pictures of the various organisms just like in the text
You may use this paper or another for your diagram. If you need more space you can tape two pieces of paper together, but you can create a different scale so you can fit it on one sheet of paper. Also, answer the following question.
