Are motile and lack cell walls
Are prokaryotic and unicellular
2. Which of the following kingdoms primarily consists of multicellular, eukaryotic organisms that are autotrophic?
Animalia
Fungi
Plantae
Protista
3. Organisms in the Kingdom are typically unicellular and prokaryotic.
4. The primary mode of nutrition for organisms in the Kingdom Animalia is .
5. A key difference between Kingdom Plantae and Kingdom Fungi is that plants have cell walls made of , while fungi have cell walls made of .
6. All organisms in the Kingdom Protista are unicellular.
