Question

Which of the following statements correctly describes a kingdom in the Domain

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Kingdom Fungi includes organisms that get energy by absorbing materials in their environment.

Explanation:

Organisms in the domain Eukarya are characterized by the possession of a well defined NUCLEUS in their cells. Kingdoms in this domain include animalia, plantae and fungi.

- Kingdom animalia contains multicellular organisms that are strictly heterotrophic i.e. cannot synthesize their own food, hence, rely on other organisms for nutrition.

- Kingdom plantae contains multicellular organisms that are capable of movement but not independently i.e. they cannot move from their fixed positions.

- Kingdom Fungi includes organisms that get energy by absorbing materials in their environment via a structure called MYCELIUM.
