The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Classification System**: The classification of living organisms is organized into different kingdoms. One of the well-known classification systems was proposed by Robert Whittaker in 1969, which includes five kingdoms: Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. 2. **Defining Kingdom Monera**: According to Whittaker's classification, the kingdom Monera is characterized by organisms that are unicellular and prokaryotic. Prokaryotic cells lack a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option 1: Unicellular Eukaryotes** - This is incorrect because Monera consists of prokaryotes, not eukaryotes. - **Option 2: Prokaryotes** - This is correct as Monera includes unicellular prokaryotic organisms. - **Option 3: Slime Molds and Protozoa** - This is incorrect because slime molds and protozoa belong to the kingdom Protista, not Monera. - **Option 4: Multicellular Eukaryotes** - This is also incorrect, as Monera does not include multicellular organisms; it only includes unicellular organisms. 4. **Conclusion**: The only correct option that describes what the kingdom Monera includes is **Option 2: Prokaryotes**. **Final Answer**: The kingdom Monera includes **prokaryotes**. ---
