Welcome to the Temperate Rainforest Facts Page!

= ﻿ ﻿Kingdom Monera = Monerans are single-celled organisms with no nucleus. Monerans can also either make their own food or eat other things.

A moneran found in the Temperate Rain Forest is the...

// Arthrospira platensis // This Moneran is found on the top layer of ponds in the Temperate Rainforest. //Arthrospira platensis// is also used as a dietary supplement as being 55% to 77% protein. //Arthrospira platensis// is a spirilla shaped bacteria too!

// Marine pathogens //
The Marine pathogens eats away flesh on any animal or living thing.

= Kingdom Protist = Protists are single or multi-celled organisms with a nucleus. Some may produce food or hunt. Protozoa are protists that are "animal-like" meaning they have no cell walls, no chlorophyll, and hunt for food. //Trichonympha magna// is one type of Protozoan in the Temperate Rainforest //Trichonympha magna// live inside of termites and help digest the termite's food.
 * ** Protozoa
