Solution

Dear student,

All living organisms can be classified by their mode of reproduction but such classification was found to be inefficient. Therefore addressing the short-comings, R H Whittaker in 1969, provided the 5 kingdom classification, classifying on the basis of:
a. Mode of nutrition,
b. Complexity of the cell,
c. Mode of reproduction,
d. Body organisation.
