Answer 1

In Kingdom Monera bacteria were included but not viruses. Viruses are on the border line of living and non-living. Do we really call them living? If they are making replicas of their own type, are they not considered as living? Throughout the world they spread hazardous epidemics. Antibiotics do not act on viral particles. However, bacteria can be controlled by antibiotics. All the living organisms belonging to Monera are with prokaryotic cell. They do not have nuclear membrane and neither they have cell organelles. But a nice nucleus is seen in Euglena. Euglena is autotrophic protist. The fungi with cell wall of chitin are saprotrophic in their mode of nutrition.
