Q.

Each of the following characteristics represent a Kingdom proposed by Whittaker. Arrange the following in increasing order of complexity of body organization.

A. Multicellular heterotrophs with cell wall made of chitin.

B. Heterotrophs with tissue/organ/organ system level of body organization.

C. Prokaryotes with cell wall made of polysaccharides and amino acids.

D. Eukaryotic autotrophs with tissue/organ level of body organization.

E. Eukaryotes with cellular body organization.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. A

    C, E, A, B, D

  2. B

    A, C, E, B, D

  3. C

    C, E, A, D, B

  4. D

    A, C, E, D, B

Solution

Identifying each kingdom from the trait given:

  • C — Monera (prokaryotes, polysaccharide+amino acid cell wall)
  • E — Protista (eukaryotes, cellular organisation)
  • A — Fungi (multicellular heterotrophs, chitin cell wall)
  • D — Plantae (eukaryotic autotrophs, tissue/organ level)
  • B — Animalia (heterotrophs, organ-system level)

Increasing order of complexity: C E A D B.
