Who proposed the Five-Kingdom Classification System?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: R. H. Whittaker

Correct answer: B, R. H. Whittaker. In 1969, Robert H. Whittaker proposed a Five-Kingdom classification based on important features such as cell structure, body or thallus organisation, mode of nutrition, reproduction, and evolutionary relationships. The five kingdoms were Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. Linnaeus is associated with the earlier Two-Kingdom system. Carl Woese is associated with the later Three-Domain system based strongly on molecular and ribosomal RNA evidence, so option C is not correct here. Theophrastus is known for early plant studies. Memory cue: “Whittaker—five kingdoms, 1969”; “Woese—three domains.”
