The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the correct statement with respect to Monera, we will analyze each option one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Monera**: - Monera is a kingdom that includes prokaryotic organisms, which means they do not have a defined nucleus. They are primarily unicellular and include bacteria and cyanobacteria (blue-green algae). 2. **Analyzing Option (a)**: - **Statement**: "All are autotrophic prokaryotes." - **Evaluation**: This statement is incorrect because not all organisms in Monera are autotrophic. Some are heterotrophic, meaning they obtain their food from other sources. 3. **Analyzing Option (b)**: - **Statement**: "All are chemoheterotrophs." - **Evaluation**: This statement is also incorrect. Monera includes both autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms. Therefore, it cannot be said that all are chemoheterotrophs. 4. **Analyzing Option (c)**: - **Statement**: "Unicellular, colonial or filamentous organisms." - **Evaluation**: This statement is correct. Monera includes unicellular organisms, and some can form colonies or filamentous structures, especially cyanobacteria. 5. **Analyzing Option (d)**: - **Statement**: "Prokaryotes with 70 S ribosome and histonic DNA." - **Evaluation**: This statement is partially correct. While Monera does have 70 S ribosomes, the DNA in these organisms does not have histones. Instead, their DNA is circular and double-stranded. Therefore, this statement is incorrect. 6. **Conclusion**: - The only correct statement regarding Monera is option (c): "Unicellular, colonial or filamentous organisms." ### Final Answer: The correct statement with respect to Monera is **(c) Unicellular, colonial or filamentous organisms.** ---
