In biology, a kingdom is the second highest taxonomic rank, the first one being the domain.

The domain Eukaryota is traditionally divided in the kingdoms Plantae, Animalia, Fungi, and Protista; and consist of the following types of organisms:

Plantae: All plants, mostly photosynthetic, including mosses, ferns, gymnosperms, and flowering plants

Animalia: All animals, heterotrophs, and with a nervous system, including jellyfishes, insects, mammals, and many others.

Fungi: All organisms with chitin in their cell walls, including yeast, molds, and mushrooms.

Protozoa: Mostly unicellular organisms that cannot be placed in the other kingdoms.

Below I'll list the organisms with the kingdom to which they belong:

Cat - Animalia

Frog - Animalia

Mushroom - Fungi

Grass - Plantae

Worm - Animalia

Shark - Animalia

Mold - Fungi

Bacteria - Domain Bacteria

Apple Tree - Plantae

Fern - Plantae

Rose bush - Plantae

Corn plant- Plantae

Of the four groups of organisms, just the members of the last one belong to the same kingdom.
