An ameba. It is a single cell organism according to science book years ago. But I suspect the earlier answer as a virus is also correct.

The domain would be Eukarya--Eukaryotic cells. Some folks would put protista in Kingdom Protista within the larger superkingdom or domain Eukarya. \n\nHowever, the word "protist" conveys the meaning of "eukaryote that isn't a plant, animal, or fungus." It includes "simpler" forms:   no complex development from embryos, no extensive cell differentiation, etc.\nBut, recent studies of protist DNA and ultrastructure show that they are not monophyletic.  The protists are quite diverse and  probably should be classified in several kingdom-level taxa. \nIn other words, the "Kingdom Protista" really represents more than one group.  It contains organisms which are more closely related to members of other kingdoms than they are to other protists.

1. Kingdom Monera [10,000 species]: Unicellular and colonial--including the true bacteria (eubacteria) and cyanobacteria (blue-green algae).\n\n2. Kingdom Protista (Protoctista) [250,000 species]: Unicellular protozoans and unicellular & multicellular (macroscopic) algae with 9 + 2 cilia and flagella (called undulipodia).\n\n3. Kingdom Fungi [100,000 species]: Haploid and dikaryotic (binucleate) cells, multicellular, generally heterotrophic, without cilia and eukaryotic (9 + 2) flagella (undulipodia).\n\n4. Kingdom Plantae [250,000 species]: Haplo-diploid life cycles, mostly autotrophic, retaining embryo within female sex organ on parent plant.\n\n5. Kingdom Animalia [1,000,000 species]: Multicellular animals, without cell walls and without photosynthetic pigments, forming diploid blastula.\n\n\nSo far those are the five Kingdoms I know of if there are a few more I have no idea but it is possible. Or you are confusing with bilogical organizations, which are 7

Most members of that kingdom are unicellular, but some are colonial and there are some that a simple multicellular.\n\nVolvox is a green alga and makes its own food, so it is an autotroph.  Radiolaria are heterotrophs.

An amoeba is the smallest animal in the world. It is a single cell organism. This means it has ONLY one cell in its whole body and insides.

I scanned a diagram I have into the computer, I hope this helps:\n\nhttp://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i267/Miles_Tails_Prower__/Aminals007.jpg\n\nBy the way Crimedog, you are thinking of Mitosis.  Meiosis is for sexual reproduction while mitosis is the asexual reproduction of eukaryotic cells.  (yoo-ku-rO-tic - cells with membrane-bound organells)

kingdom plantae - kingdom of mullticellular photosynthetic autotrophs or eukaryotes that have cell walls containing cellulose. they develop from multicellular embryos and carry out photosynthesis using green pigments chlorophyll a and b.

the amoeba i guess, it is unicellular.the largest ones are 1 mm across

(m)\n\nMycology is the study of fungi. At various points throughout history, fungi have been considered to be either plants or animals. It was finally concluded that fungi are neither plants nor animals, but are a distinct group. Fungi are now considered one of the five kingdoms into which all living organisms are classified.

u must be knowing that all organisms are classified into five kingdoms-monera,protista,anemalia,fungi and alge.\n\nthe MONERA phlum[group] consists of bacteria which are prokaryotic in nature -i.e, the cell doesnot have membrane bound organneles or nucleus.\n\nthe Protista group consists of organisms that are eukaryotic in nature-that is they have well defined organneles.\nthis is one reason that bacteria is kept in two separate groups.

Protists:  CLICK LINK BELOW FOR NAMES AND PICTURES ! YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO PRINT THAT PAGE.\n\nSlime molds and algae are protists.\nSometimes they are called the odds and ends kingdom because its members are so different from one another.  Protists include all microscopic organisms that are not bacteria, not animals, not plants and not fungi.\nMost protists are unicellular. You may be wondering why those protists are not classified in the Archaebacteria or Eubacteria kingdoms.\nIt is because, unlike bacteria, protists are complex cells. \n \nThese delicate looking diatoms are classified in the protist kingdom.

Animals are a major group of organisms, classified as the kingdom Animalia or Meta­zoa. In general they are multi­cellular, capable of locomotion, responsive to their environment, and feed by consuming other organisms. Their body plan becomes fixed as they develop, usually early on in their development as embryos, although some undergo a process of metamorphosis later on.\n\nThe word "animal" comes from the Latin word animal, of which animalia is the plural, and ultimately from anima, meaning vital breath or soul.\n\nCharacteristics\nAnimals have several characteristics that set them apart from other living things. Animals are eukaryotic and multicellular, which separates them from bacteria and most protists. They are heterotrophic, generally digesting food in an internal chamber, which separates them from plants and algae. They are also distinguished from plants, algae, and fungi by lacking cell walls.\n\n\nStructure\nWith a few exceptions, most notably the sponges (Phylum Porifera), animals have bodies differen­tiated into separate tissues. These include muscles, which are able to contract and control locomotion, and a nervous system, which sends and processes signals. There is also typically an internal digestive chamber, with one or two openings. Animals with this sort of organization are called metazoans, or eumetazoans when the former is used for animals in general.\n\nAll animals have eukaryotic cells, surrounded by a characteristic extracellular matrix composed of collagen and elastic glycoproteins. This may be calcified to form structures like shells, bones, and spicules. During development it forms a relatively flexible framework upon which cells can move about and be reorganized, making complex structures possible. In contrast, other multicellular organisms like plants and fungi have cells held in place by cell walls, and so develop by progressive growth. Also, unique to animal cells are the following intercellular junctions: tight junctions, gap junctions, and desmosomes.\n\nReproduction and development\nNearly all animals undergo some form of sexual reproduction. Adults are diploid or polyploid. They have a few specialized reproductive cells, which undergo meiosis to produce smaller motile spermatozoa or larger non-motile ova. These fuse to form zygotes, which develop into new individuals.\n\nMany animals are also capable of asexual reproduction. This may take place through parthenogenesis, where fertile eggs are produced without mating, or in some cases through fragmentation.\n\nA zygote initially develops into a hollow sphere, called a blastula, which undergoes rearrangement and differentiation. In sponges, blastula larvae swim to a new location and develop into a new sponge. In most other groups, the blastula undergoes more complicated rearrangement. It first invaginates to form a gastrula with a digestive chamber, and two separate germ layers - an external ectoderm and an internal endoderm. In most cases, a mesoderm also develops between them. These germ layers then differentiate to form tissues and organs.\n\nAnimals grow by indirectly using the energy of sunlight. Plants use this energy to convert sunlight into simple sugars using a process known as photosynthesis. Starting with the molecules Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O), photosynthesis converts the energy of sunlight into chemical energy stored in the bonds of Glucose (C6H12O6) and releases Oxygen (O2). These sugars are then used as the building blocks which allow the plant to grow. When animals eat these plants (or eat other animals which have eaten plants), the sugars produced by the plant are used by the animal. They are either used directly to help the animal grow, or broken down, releasing stored solar energy, and giving the animal the energy required for motion. This process is known as glycolysis.\n\n\nOrigin and fossil record\nAnimals are generally considered to have evolved from flagellate protozoa. Their closest living relativ
