The kingdom Monera includes the most ancient, the smallest, the simplest and the most widely distributed group of living organisms that are generally described by the term prokaryotes. The kingdom includes two major groups namely 1. Eubacteria : It consists o..

The present trend in biology is to follow the five kingdom classification proposed by R.H.Whittaker in the year 1969. Whittaker classified the living organisms into five kingdoms namely. 1. KINGDOM: MONERA (prokaryotic organisms) 2. KINGDOM..

The five-kingdom classification has certain merits and demerits. However, it is largely the most accepted system of modern classification mainly because of the phylogenetic placing of different groups of living organisms. This system of classification looks more scientific and natural bec..

In the modern system of classification, living organisms are grouped under five kingdoms, as proposed by Whittaker (1966). The Kingdom Monera includes bacteria and blue green algae, both of which possess prokaryotic cell..

. The two-kingdom classification has certain demerits, particularly with reference to lower forms of life which show common features with both plants and animals. In 1858 Earnt Haeckel proposed the three-kingdom classification in which apart from Plantae and Animalia, a new ..

One of the unsolved mysteries in biology is that of viruses. Due to the absence of a cellular organization viruses cannot be placed with either prokaryotes or eukaryotes. They are considered as intermediate between living and non-living systems. Viruses are active and show reproduction on..

In the modern system of classification, living organisms are grouped under five kingdoms, as proposed by Whittaker (1966). The Kingdom Monera includes bacteria and blue green algae, both of which possess prokaryotic cells. Bacteria are unicellular ..

Three groups of Algae - Rhodophyta (red algae), Phaeophyta (brown algae) and Chlorophyta (green algae) have been included in the Kingdom Metaphyta. As you have already learnt, the group cyanophyta (blue-green algae) has been placed in the Kingdom Monera while the..

They are tiny organisms found in soil and sewage water. Some are parasites. They are the smallest among living organisms (other than viruses) varying in size from 0-125 to 0-150 m m in diameter. They exhibit a great deal of variation in their shape and form. fig. 8.9 - A Generalised Cell Structure ..
