Solution
The correct option is A Animalia
∙The organisms in the kingdom Animalia are multicellular and eukaryotic. They depend on others for food (heterotrophs). The mode of intake of food varies with animals.
∙ Fungi includes both unicellular and multicellular organisms. They are eukaryotic, heterotrophic and lack chlorophyll like that of animals. But, fungi show absorptive mode of nutrition whereas, animals show ingestive mode of nutrition.
∙ Monera includes only prokaryotic organisms.
∙ Protists are eukaryotic but are usually unicellular.
