A scientist finds a new life form and determines that it performs photosynthesis. Which of the 6 kingdoms could it belong to? Select the list that contains all the possible kingdoms. Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protista, and Plantae Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protista, and Fungi Protista and Fungi Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Fungi, and Plantae

Protista: Protists are single-celled and usually move by cilia, flagella, or by amoeboid mechanisms. There is usually no cell wall, although some forms may have a cell wall. They have organelles including a nucleus and may have chloroplasts, so some will be green and others won't be. They are small, although many are big enough to be recognized in a dissecting microscope or even with a magnifying glass. Nutrients are acquired by photosynthesis, ingestion of other organisms, or both. Fungi: Fungi are multicellular,with a cell wall, organelles including a nucleus, but no chloroplasts. They have no mechanisms for locomotion. Fungi range in size from microscopic to very large ( such as mushrooms). Nutrients are acquired by absorption. For the most part, fungi acquire nutrients from decaying material. Plantae: Plants are multicellular and most don't move, although gametes of some plants move using cilia or flagella. Organelles including nucleus, chloroplasts are present, and cell walls are present. Nutrients are acquired by photosynthesis (they all require sunlight). What do you think?
Monera (includes Eubacteria and Archeobacteria): Individuals are single-celled, may or may not move, have a cell wall, have no chloroplasts or other organelles, and have no nucleus. Monera are usually very tiny, although one type, namely the blue-green bacteria, look like algae. They are filamentous and quite long, green, but have no visible structure inside the cells. No visible feeding mechanism. They absorb nutrients through the cell wall or produce their own by photosynthesis.
yes thank you
A, wouldn't you agree?
No problem. :)
