This class provides for the following products:

1. Living multicellular organisms, i.e., plants and nonhuman animals. Plants include multicellular algae, multicellular fungi, and higher and lower multicellular plant life.

2. Living multicellular organisms and living products: (a) derived from traditional or conventional breeding techniques; (b) derived from grafting processes; (c) derived from tissue culture techniques; and/or (d) derived from techniques which change the genetic makeup or affect the progeny of multicellular organisms.
