What are the five large groups that living things can be classified into?

[Edit]

More correctly than saying all living things, you could say all eukaryotes (see diagram below). This is called the five-kingdom system of classification. I'm in the Taxonomicon at the moment and I copied this from there. I've used it for assignments before and it is very detailed. I love it.

www.taxonomy.nl - the Taxonomicon.

Biota (all living things)
- viruses
- domain Bacteria
-
domain Archaea
- domain Eukaryota - for expansion see below

Eukaryota
- Kingdom Animalia
- Kingdom Plantae
- Kingdom Protista
- Kingdom Fungi
- Kingdom Chromista
