Animalia is the label that appears to differentiate animals from organisms on other kingdom.

Explanation:

Scientists uses the process called taxonomy to classify the organisms based on their structure, functions and relationship to other organisms.

Eukaryotes represents the domain of life. Domain Eukarya are classified into four kingdoms they are protista, fungi, plantae and animalia.

The kingdom protista represents the organisms that are simple structured and they swim through the water and obtain nutrients from the environment.

In the kingdom fungi like mushrooms absorb nutrients from the environment and they are heterotrophs.

In the plantae kingdom the organisms are plants and they are autotrophs. They prepare their own food.

In Animalia kingdom the organisms are animals and they are multicellular heterotrophs. They do not have cell walls and the reproduction is done sexually and some can reproduce asexual.
