Question

An organism is described to you as having many nuclei containing cells, each surrounded by a cell wall of chitin and absorbing its food. In which kingdom or domain would you place the organism?

• A. Plantae
• B. Protista
• C. Animalia
• D. Fungi

Answer 1

The correct option is D Fungi

Fungi is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes yeasts and molds. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. They acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Certain types of fungi have multinucleated cells.

So, the correct answer is 'Fungi'.
