Cavalier-Smith's first major classification system was the division of all organisms into eight kingdoms. In 1981, he proposed that by completely revising Robert Whittaker's Five Kingdom system, there could be eight kingdoms: Bacteria, Eufungi, Ciliofungi, Animalia, Biliphyta, Viridiplantae, Cryptophyta, and Euglenozoa.
The three-domain system adds a level of classification (the domains) "above" the kingdoms present in the previously used five- or six-kingdom systems.This classification system recognizes the fundamental divide between the two prokaryotic groups, insofar as Archaea appear to be more closely related to eukaryotes than they are to other prokaryotes – bacteria-like organisms with no cell nucleus.
The classification groups are designated a letter, normally the sport’s initial and a number. Typically, the lower the number, the greater the impairment, but that’s not always the case, per ...
His botanical classification and sexual system were used well into the nineteenth century. [4] Within each class were several orders.

The two-domain system is a biological classification by which all organisms in the tree of life are classified into two domains, Bacteria and Archaea. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It emerged from development of knowledge of archaea diversity and challenges the widely accepted three-domain system that classifies life into Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya . [ 4 ]
