Chapter 2: Biological Classification

KEY POINTS:
- 5 Kingdoms: Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia.
- Monera = Prokaryotes (e.g. Bacteria, Cyanobacteria).

- Angiosperms = Flowers + covered seeds (Monocot/Dicot).
- Alternation of generations: Sporophyte <-> Gametophyte.
Chapter 4: Animal Kingdom

KEY POINTS:
- Classification: Symmetry, layers, coelom, segmentation.
- Porifera – Sponges, pores, no tissues.
- Cnidaria – Tentacles, stinging cells (e.g. Hydra).
- Platyhelminthes – Flatworms, parasitic.
- Annelida – Segmented worms (Earthworm).
- Arthropoda – Largest group (Insects, prawns).
- Mollusca – Soft-bodied (Snail, Octopus).
- Echinodermata – Spiny (Starfish).
- Chordata – Notochord, vertebrates.
