Solution

The correct option is A Fungi
Fungi

Fungi can be single celled (example yeast) or multicellular (example filamentous fungi). They have a well defined nucleus with a nuclear membrane hence, they are eukaryotic. The cell wall is made up of chitin. Since they lack chlorophyll their mode of nutrition is heterotrophic.
