Text SolutionText solutionverified iconVerified

In five kingdom classification of Whittaker, non-cellular organisms like viruses and viroids are not mentioned. Viruses did not find a place in classification since they are not truly ‘living’ and hence, they are considered as non-cellular.
Monera includes all unicellular prokaryotes called bacteria in which viruses can not be included.
Protista includes all eukaryotic unicellular plant and animals and fungi are heterotrophic /parasitic, cellular organism devoid of chlorophyll.
