The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Kingdom**: The question asks about organisms in the Kingdom Animalia. This kingdom includes all animals, such as humans, fish, and insects. 2. **Understand the Characteristics of Organisms in Animalia**: - **Multicellular**: Organisms in the Kingdom Animalia are multicellular, meaning they are made up of more than one cell. - **Heterotrophic**: These organisms are heterotrophic, which means they cannot produce their own food and rely on other organisms (plants or animals) for nutrition. 3. **Evaluate the Options**: - **Option A**: Multicellular and heterotrophic - This is correct as it describes the characteristics of animals. - **Option B**: Multicellular and autotrophic - Incorrect because autotrophic organisms can produce their own food, which is characteristic of plants, not animals. - **Option C**: Unicellular and autotrophic - Incorrect as this describes single-celled organisms that can produce their own food, like some bacteria. - **Option D**: Unicellular and heterotrophic - Incorrect because this describes single-celled organisms that depend on others for food, like protozoans, but does not apply to the majority of animals. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the characteristics of organisms in the Kingdom Animalia, the correct answer is **Option A: Multicellular and heterotrophic**.
