What is the similarity between Kingdom Monera, Plantae and Fungi?
A
All organisms consist of cell walls.
B
All organisms are multicellular.
C
All organisms are eukaryotes.
D
All organisms are not autotrophs.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -They lack cell walls and most exist as intracellular parasites of plants or animals.

Detailed explanation-2: -Like plant cells, fungi have cell walls made up of complex sugar molecules called chitin. But unlike plants, they do not undergo photosynthesis. The cell wall is composed of chitin. The vegetative body of the fungi may be unicellular or composed of microscopic threads called hyphae.

Detailed explanation-3: -Organisms belonging to group Monera are primitive, unicellular and prokaryotes. They possess cell wall made up of peptidoglycan, which is in turn made of derivatives of sugar as N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid, which are covalently attached to the core protein.

Detailed explanation-4: -Monera, protista, fungi and plantae have cell walls.
