Someone who's good at bio wanna help me here?????

So what i basically have to do is come up witha Kingdom. mine for example is Plantae. then we have to come up with 3 phylums, choose one of the phylums and find 2 classes, then pick one of the classes and find 2 orders, THEN pick one of the orders and choose 2 families, then pick one family and choose 2 genus, and so on till the end of the classification clusterfuck.

a link anyone
I will be what i could be
Once I get out of this town

    lol... i find it funny that you typed all that out, and then gave up when you only had one level left to go! :confused::p

    if you're looking for a link, why not just google it?

    here's a list of the phylums in Plantae:

    i'm sure you can keep googling the phylum/class/order/family/genus names until you get to the end of your "clusterfuck".

    that should at least get you started.

    It might be easier to start at the species level and work backwards.

    no i dont think so.

    it should look something like this

    Plantae
    -phylum 1
    -phylum 2
    -phylum 3
    ♣♣- class 1
    ♣♣- class 2
    ♣♣♣- order 1
    ♣♣♣- order 2
    ♣♣♣♣- family 1
    ♣♣♣♣- family 2
    ♣♣♣♣♣- genus 1
    ♣♣♣♣♣- genus 2
    ♣♣♣♣♣♣- species 1
    ♣♣♣♣♣♣- species 2

    but we have to build off one of each.

    Kingdom PLANTAE
    Phylum 1 Bryophyta – mosses
    Phylum 2 Hepatophyta – liverworts
    Phylum 3 Anthocerophyta – hornworts thorned liverworts
    Phylum 4 Lycophyta – club mosses, and spike mosses
    Phylum 5 Psilophyta – whisk ferns,
    Phylum 6 Sphenophyta – horsetails
    Phylum 7 Filicinophyta – ferns
    Phylum 8 Cycadophyta – cycads
    Phylum 9 Ginkgophyta – maidenhair tree
    Phylum 10 Coniferophyta – conifers
    Phylum11 Gnetophyta –jointfir, ephedra, and Welwitschia
    Phylum 12 Anthophyta – flowering plants


    pick 3.
    look them up.
    find out what's in them.

    rinse. repeat.

    it's cool.

    try searching for the "phylum name" + classes. that should get you a list of the classes in the phylum.

    then serach the "class name" + orders. that should get you a list of the orders in the class.

    etc.
