Question

The two kingdom classification of Linnaeus is proved to be ineffective in the case of which of the following organism/s?

• A. Fungi
• B. Lichens
• C. Euglena
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

In the two-kingdom classification given by Linnaeus, all organisms were classified into plants and animals. This system, however, did not distinguish between eukaryotes and prokaryotes/unicellular and multicellular organisms/ photosynthetic and nonphotosynthetic organisms in which a large number of organisms did not fit. Lichens and fungi were classified under Plantae and euglena under Animalia.

So, the correct option is 'all of the above'.
