Are Bacteria Animals?

Question

Are Bacteria Animals?

Answer 1

no...bacteria r something very primitive...so primitive that we cant judge whether they r animals or plants

anyways they have the characters of both animals and plants... they give us a clue that animals and plants were initially fused

Answer 2

no, there are different kingdoms for different types of organisms, and bacteria do not fall under the animal kingdom.

Answer 3

No they are not.First of all bacteria are unicellular(one cell)while animals are multicellular(many cells).Second animal cells are called Eukaryotes and are more complex and larger  than the bacteria cells which are called prokaryotes.Third animals reproduce sexually  by meiosis which produces sprerms and ovums while bacteria reproduce asexually  by binary fission(NOT Mitosis) ,during which  one cell divides into two identical daughter cells.

  

Answer 4

No.  Animals are a kingdom under the domain Eukarya, bacteria are a separate domain.

Domains were a new level inserted abouve kingdom to include the diversity of bacteria and archaea (another kind of microorganism similar to conventional bacteria).
