Protists (A Class of their Own Series)

Protists (A Class of their Own Series)

Discover the kingdom Protista and the fascinating organisms within! This engaging series introduces students in grades 5 to 8 to the Six Kingdoms, one current scientific classification system for life. Each book discusses the characteristics of the kingdom’s life-forms, specific species' biology and behaviors, their interrelationships with other kingdoms, and their impact on humans. This title covers the varied inhabitants of Protista, including algae, amoebae, slime molds, and plankton. (Please note that some scientists reject the Six Kingdom model and may categorize these organisms in other ways. Classification systems are continually being updated as new information becomes available.)
