Fungi-Peptidoglycan, Plant-Cellulose, Eubacteria-Chitin
B
Plant-Peptidoglycan, Eubacteria-Chitin
C
Fungi-Cellulose, Plant-Chitin, Eubacteria-Peptidoglycan
D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Monera, protista, fungi and plantae have cell walls. It helps in giving the proper shape to the cell and protects the cell from mechanical damage.

Detailed explanation-2: -The body structure of fungi is unique. It is composed of branched and filamentous hyphae, which form a net-like structure known as mycelium. The hyphae have a thin, rigid wall made up chiefly of chitin, a nitrogen-containing polysaccharide.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cell wall is a characteristic structure of fungi and is composed mainly of glucans, chitin and glycoproteins.

Detailed explanation-4: -Kingdom Monera They are prokaryotic and lack a nucleus or other membrane-bounded organelles. The cell wall, outside the plasma membrane, is partially composed of peptidoglycan, a complex structural molecule not found in eukaryotic cells.
