The correct match [with respect to Whittaker’s Five Kingdom classification] is:
| 1. | Monera | All members have a cell wall |
| 2. | Protista | All members are photosynthetic |
| 3. | Fungi | All members are multi-cellular |
| 4. | Animalia | All members are heterotrophs |
| i. | It is placed together organisms which widely differed in other characters. |
| ii. | It brought together the prokaryotic bacteria and blue green algae with other groups which were eukaryotic. |
| iii. | It grouped together the unicellular and multicellular organisms. |
| iv. | It did not distinguish between heterotrophic and autotrophic organisms. |
| v. | It had kingdoms Plantae and Animalia. |
