The correct option is D X-Animalia Y-Protista Z-Plantae

Kingdom Protista:
- They are simple, unicellular, eukaryotic organisms.
- Most of the protist live in water, some in moist soil or even the body of human and plants.
- Their mode of nutrition can be autotrophic or heterotrophic.
Kingdom Plantae:
- They are multicellular eukaryotes.
- Typically, they consist of a rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane called the cell wall.
- Plants also have a green coloured pigment called chlorophyll that is needed for photosynthesis.
- They have an autotrophic mode of nutrition.
Kingdom Animalia:
- Kingdom Animalia consists of all animals.
- Animals are multicellular eukaryotes. But they don’t have a cell wall or chlorophyll like plants.
- Members of the animal kingdom have a heterotrophic mode of nutrition.
