The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "Kingdom fungi includes organisms that are," we will analyze the options provided and determine the characteristics of organisms in the kingdom Fungi. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Options**: - The options given are: 1. A) A chlorophyllous 2. B) Hetero-trophs 3. C) Flower-bearing 4. D) One and two (A and B) 2. **Analyzing Option A - A chlorophyllous**: - The term "a chlorophyllous" means the absence of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in plants that is essential for photosynthesis. - Since fungi do not have chlorophyll, they cannot perform photosynthesis. This means they are indeed a chlorophyllous. 3. **Analyzing Option B - Hetero-trophs**: - Hetero-trophs are organisms that cannot produce their own food and must rely on other organisms for nutrition. - Fungi are hetero-trophic; they obtain their nutrients by decomposing organic matter or by forming symbiotic relationships with other organisms. This confirms that fungi are hetero-trophs. 4. **Analyzing Option C - Flower-bearing**: - Flower-bearing organisms are typically associated with the plant kingdom, specifically angiosperms (flowering plants). - Fungi do not produce flowers, so this option is incorrect. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since fungi are a chlorophyllous and hetero-trophic, the correct answer is option D, which states that kingdom fungi includes organisms that are both A (a chlorophyllous) and B (hetero-trophs). ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **D) One and two (A and B)**. ---
