Classification of Living Beings

 Heat Energy Most of us refer the word ‘heat’ to anything that feels warm but scientifically, heat is defined as the flow of energy from a warm to a cooler object. The classification of heat is done on this basis as hot and cold. Heat energy is all around us, such as in icebergs, volcanoes, and our bodies. Every matter has heat energy. The result of the movement of minute particles known as atoms, molecules, or ions in liquids, solids, and gases is nothing but heat energy. Heat energy can be transferred from one substance to another, and the flow because of the temperature difference between two objects is known as heat. Ways Of Transferring Heat Energy Convection  transfers heat energy via air and liquids. The particles move apart and become less dense as the air heats up and hence causing the air to rise. While cooler air moves in from below and heats up. Radiation  warms the air using heat waves that radiate out of the hot object in all directions until absorbed by other objects. He

Animal Kingdom Scientists predict that only 15% of species are known to man from the estimated 8.7 million species. That leaves almost 85% species yet to be discovered. Only about 953,434 species of animals have been catalogued in the Animal Kingdom. Let us study this classification of animals. Classification of Animals and Plants There are millions of  living organisms  in this world. There are some which are even yet to be discovered. These living organisms that are known to man, very broadly include animals, plants,  microorganisms  etc. All of them show great diversity. Yet, there are some characteristics that are similar between groups of organisms and this is what binds them together. Classification of animals helps us to understand their characteristics, as well as their differences with other organisms. The best-known organisms are the animals. In scientific terminology, they are grouped under the Kingdom Animalia, better known as the Animal Kingdom. Let us learn more about thi
