Solution

The correct option is B Monera
R. H. Whittaker proposed the five-kingdom classification including monera, protists, fungi, plants, and animals. The kingdom of Monera is divided into two groups, archaebacteria, and eubacteria. These organisms are unicellular prokaryotes that do not have well-developed cell organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplast, etc. The kingdom Monera includes organisms such as the archaebacteria, nitrogen-fixing bacteria, methanogenic bacteria, cyanobacteria (BGA) and filamentous actinomycetes.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
