Solution

The correct option is C Virus
Monera is the kingdom which is comprised of the prokaryotic organisms. The kingdom includes the unicellular bacteria, multicellular cyanobacteria and the certain cells like Mycoplasma which do not have cell wall. The viruses are the obligate parasites and are not considered as living. They were not placed in any of the five kingdoms which were proposed by Whittaker.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
