Answer 1

Option(D) is correct

A scientist creates a new kingdom based on the fact that a discovered organism has unique characteristics and he has never seen a similar organism before.

Explanation:

A new kingdom can be created if the organism that has been discovered is entirely different from the organisms existing earlier. If the organism possesses features of any other organism existing earlier than it might be impossible to create a new kingdom.

This helps scientists to create a new kingdom or different species of plants or animals. It helps in the development of unique species that possess unique qualities.
