In which kingdom do I belong if I am unicellular, autotrophic, and eukaryotic?
A
Archaebacteria
B
Protista
C
Animalia
D
Plantae
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -All prokaryotic organisms were grouped together under Kingdom Monera and the unicellular eukaryotic organisms were placed in Kingdom Protista.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The kingdom that includes autotrophic, heterotrophic, unicellular and multicellular organisms is Protista. Kingdom Protista is an extremely diverse group of organisms, all made up of eukaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -The eukaryotes that make up this kingdom, Kingdom Protista, do not have much in common besides a relatively simple organization. Protists can look very different from each other. Some are tiny and unicellular, like an amoeba, and some are large and multicellular, like seaweed.

Detailed explanation-4: -Most protists are aquatic, others are found in moist and damp environments. Most are unicellular, however, there are a few multicellular protists such as the giant kelp. They may be autotrophic or heterotrophic in nature.

Detailed explanation-5: -Unicellular prokaryotic organisms like bacteria are included in the kingdom “Monera” where the organisms do not have a nuclear membrane and have an autotrophic (chemosynthetic and photosynthetic) and heterotrophic (saprophytic/parasitic) mode of nutrition.
