Solution

The correct option is A Monera
Whittaker proposed the five-kingdom classification system. The five kingdoms include Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae and Animalia. Monera includes prokaryotic, non-nucleated, unicellular organisms. They have a cell wall, have no membrane-bound organelles or true nucleus.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Monera.'
