According to two kingdom classification fungi were placed in kingdom___________?

Correct answer: A. Plantae

  • A. Plantae
  • B. Animalia
  • C. Protista
  • D. Fungi

Explanation

In the traditional two-kingdom system, fungi were grouped with plants in Plantae because both are generally nonmotile and possess cell walls. The separate kingdom Fungi reflects modern classification, so selecting it applies a later system rather than the two-kingdom scheme.
