|
||||
| Give and example of something in Kingdom Fungi | mushrooms, molds, yeast
🗑
|
||||
| Kingdom of all plants | Plantae
🗑
|
||||
| Kingdom of all vertabrates and invertabrates | Animalia

🗑
|
||||

🗑
|

To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
