Solution
The correct option is C Monera
Whittaker’s system of organisms classification is based on the evolutionary relationship of phenotypic (observable) characteristics in which three levels of cellular organization are thought to have evolved along three different lines of nutritional strategies: photosynthesis, absorption, and ingestion. The monerans possess cell walls (except mycoplasmas and some archaebacteria) beyond any doubt but the cell wall composition is unique. Unlike other organisms, the chief constituent of the monerans cell wall is ‘peptidoglycan’ except archaebacteria in which the main constituent is thought to be usually proteinaceous). Flagella, if present, are 8 stranded lacking 9 + 2 arrangement; each strand is made up of a protein named flagellin.
So, the correct option is 'Monera'.
