Description
Description
For thousands of years we have divided all known living things into only two fundamental "kingdoms" -- plants and animals. As science developed, a "tree of life" was drawn placing every living thing on a network of branches stemming from one of these two main boughs. But a new understanding of life on Earth has forced us to redraw this tree of life, pushing plants and animals to one corner of an expanded tree.
