Vedclass · Answer

(C) Whittaker's system of classification categorizes organisms into five kingdoms: Monera,Protista,Fungi,Plantae,and Animalia.Option $A$ is incorrect because Monera are prokaryotic and lack a cellulosic cell wall (they have peptidoglycan).Option $B$ is incorrect because Protista are primarily aquatic and while they can be photoautotrophs,they are not typically classified as chemoautotrophs.Option $C$ is correct: Fungi are eukaryotic,mostly multicellular (or loose tissue),heterotrophic (osmotrophs/saprotrophs),and possess a chitinous cell wall.Option $D$ is incorrect because while Animalia are multicellular,eukaryotic,and holozoic,the term 'no saprobic' is not a defining characteristic used in this specific context compared to the accuracy of option $C$.
