Which kingdom is NOT included in Whittaker's Five-Kingdom classification?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Prokaryota

Correct answer: D, Prokaryota. Whittaker's Five-Kingdom classification contains Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. Monera includes prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria, but “Prokaryota” is not a separate kingdom in Whittaker's five-kingdom scheme. Option A is included as the kingdom of prokaryotes in the school-level classification. Option B includes mostly unicellular eukaryotic organisms, and option C includes fungi, which have absorptive nutrition and distinctive cell walls. The word prokaryota describes a cellular organisation or a broader grouping, not one of Whittaker's five named kingdoms. Memory cue: list the five as M-P-F-P-A: Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia.
