Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B

Explanation

In the Five Kingdom Classification proposed by R.H. Whittaker, Kingdom Monera exclusively comprises prokaryotic organisms. The primary members of this kingdom are Archaebacteria (ancient bacteria often found in extreme environments like hot springs and salty areas) and Eubacteria (true bacteria, including cyanobacteria or blue-green algae).

  • Option A: Euglenoids and Protozoans are unicellular eukaryotes and belong to Kingdom Protista.
  • Options C and D: Phycomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Deuteromycetes are different classes within Kingdom Fungi.

Kingdom Monera is distinguished from other kingdoms by the absence of a well-defined nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
