GSE S7L1: Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to investigate the diversity of living organisms and how they can be compared scientifically.. GSE 7L1b: Evaluate historical models of how organisms were classified based on physical characteristics how that led to the six-kingdom system (currently archaea, bacteria, protists, fungi, plants and animals). - Definition of fungus, somatic structures, types of fungal thalli, fungal tissues, modifications of thallus, reproduction in fungi (asexual and sexual) General characters of fungi Fungi are the euka (1973).
