MCQ
Single­-celled eukaryotes are included in
  • protista
  • B
    fungi
  • C
    archaea
  • D
    monera.

Answer

Correct option: A.
protista
a
(a) : Protista include all unicellular and colonial eukaryotes except those of green and red algae. The protistan cells are typically eukaryotic having membrane bound organelles like mitochondria, chloroplasts, Golgi bodies, endoplasmic reticulum, nucleus etc. Protista is commonly known as kingdom of unicellular eukaryotes. Kingdom fungi contains achlorophyllous, spore producing, heterotrophic, multicellular or multinucleate eukaryotic organisms (unicellular yeasts are also included amongst fungi because their sexual reproduction is similar to that of some fungi). Monerans are basically unicellular prokaryotes. Archaea (ancient bacteria) are also a type of monerans which live in primitive environment like high temperature, high salt content, acidic $pH$, etc.
