PLANT KINGDOM

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Plants are:
A
autotrophic eukaryotes, have cell walls
B
autotrophic prokaryotes, have cell walls
C
heterotrophic eukaryotes, have cell walls
D
heterotrophic prokaryotes, have cell membranes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Plantae: This kingdom includes all plants except algae, diatoms, fungi, and members of monera and Protista. They are multicellular Eukaryotes that have a cell wall and perform photosynthesis. They are the autotrophs and contain photosynthetic pigments called chlorophyll in the plastids.

Detailed explanation-2: -Among the eukaryotes, some protists, and all fungi and plants, have cell walls. Cell walls are not identical in these organisms, however. In fungi, the cell wall contains a polysaccharide called chitin. Plant cells, in contrast, have no chitin; their cell walls are composed exclusively of the polysaccharide cellulose.

Detailed explanation-3: -All plants are multicellular organisms made of Eukaryotic cells that have a cell wall. They get food through photosynthesis so they are autotrophs.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plants are predominantly autotrophic and eukaryotic. They are autotrophic as they contain the pigment chlorophyll, which helps them to prepare their own food through a process called photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-5: -Kingdom fungi are eukaryotic, multicellular organisms having cells with chitinous cell wall and show heterotrophic mode of nutrition.
