C
Protista and Plantae
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -These are Eukaryotic, Multicellular organisms with a cell wall that is made up of cellulose. They are autotrophs and synthesize their own food through the process of photosynthesis. This kingdom includes all plants.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plants are all multicellular and consist of complex cells. In addition plants are autotrophs, organisms that make their own food. With over 250, 000 species, the plant kingdom is the second largest kingdom.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant-like protists are mainly autotrophs which are capable of making their own food through photosynthesis, but some are both autotrophic and heterotrophic like the Euglena. Their cells contain chloroplasts that contain a green pigment, chlorophyll, to absorb sunlight.

Detailed explanation-4: -Kingdom Plantae includes multicellular, autotrophic organisms.

Detailed explanation-5: -Seaweeds are algae. Algae, along with plants and some bacteria and fungi, are autotrophs. Autotrophs are the producers in the food chain, meaning they create their own nutrients and energy. Kelp, like most autotrophs, creates energy through a process called photosynthesis.
