Living things
In biology, an organismis any contiguous system life (animals, fungi, microorganisms or plants). At least in some form, all types of organisms are capable of responding tostimuli and reproduction, growth and development andmaintenance of homeostasis as astable whole.
An organism can be either unicellular (single cell) or, as in the case of humans, comprising several billions of cells grouped into specialized tissues and organs. Theterm multicellular (many cells) describes any organism made ​​up of more than one cell.
Scientific classification in biology considers organisms synonymous with life on Earth. Based on thetype of cells, organisms can be divided into groups of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The prokaryotes represent two different domains, bacteria and archaea.Eukaryotic organisms, with a membrane limits the cellnucleus, also contain organelles, namely mitochondria and (in plants) plastids generally considered to be derived frombacteria endosymbioses. Fungi, animals and plants are examples of species thatareeukaryotes.

Animals
Animals are a major group of multicellular eukaryotic organisms of the kingdom Animaliaor metazoans. Their body plan eventually becomes fixed as they develop, although someundergo aprocess of metamorphosis later on in life. Most animals are mobile, which means that can move spontaneously and independently. All animals are heterotrophic, meaning they must ingest other...
