Which kingdoms contain Eukaryotes?
A
Bacteria and Archaea
B
Bacteria and Animalia
C
Fungi and Protista
D
Archaea and Plantae
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The most influential system, the ‘Whittaker’ five kingdom structure, recognises Monera (prokaryotes) and four eukaryotic kingdoms: Animalia (Metazoa), Plantae, Fungi and Protista.

Detailed explanation-2: -Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. There is a wide range of eukaryotic organisms, including all animals, plants, fungi, and protists, as well as most algae. Eukaryotes may be either single-celled or multicellular.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bacteria and archaea are prokaryotes, while all other living organisms-protists, plants, animals and fungi-are eukaryotes, according to the educational website tutors.com (opens in new tab).

Detailed explanation-4: -The classical two kingdom classification into “plants” and “animals” and the newer four kingdom classifications into “protis", “fungi” “animals” and “plants” are therefore both unsatisfactory. Eukaryotes can be classified into nine kingdoms each defined in terms of a unique constellation of cell structures.

Detailed explanation-5: -Kingdom Protista includes all single-celled eukaryotes such as Chrysophytes, Dinoflagellates, Euglenoids, Slime-moulds and Protozoans. Protists have defined nucleus and other membrane bound organelles. They reproduce both asexually and sexually. Members of Kingdom Fungi show a great diversity in structures and habitat.
