Thursday Morning Riddle
I’m not multiplication, except in a cell;
I’m a part of an army, or business as well;
A collection of sports teams where one will excel;
And the discord that tears an alliance to hell.
Who am I?
UPDATE: Riddle solved by Benjamin Baxter. See comments for answer.

Clever!
When this motion is carried, the parliament votes;
All the plants and the fungi are grouped with their kin;
Often Navy folk make one of two to four boats;
And according to Caesar, you start here to win.

I finally got the answer, too. Thanks! My staff developer just showed me your site. I hope to use your blog to educate (and entertain) myself, and my students, in the future.

DIVISION is correct. Way to go, Benjamin Baxter!
Nice quatrain, Craig! Can MiddletonTeacher.com be far behind?
Welcome, Douglas Von Hoppe! I’m a staff developer myself, so I suspect I know yours. Pass along my thanks for the referral, and I look forward to seeing you here again.

A little awkward, but I liked the way you used “multiplication” in the first line so much, I had to make a response.
