Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the five-kingdom classification system, which categorizes organisms into Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia based on characteristics such as cell type, organization, and mode of nutrition.
Recognize that prokaryotes are organisms that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. This is a key feature distinguishing them from eukaryotes.
Recall that the kingdom Monera is specifically designated for prokaryotic organisms, including bacteria and archaea.
Eliminate the other options: Plantae, Protista, and Fungi, as these kingdoms consist of eukaryotic organisms with more complex cellular structures.
Conclude that prokaryotes are placed in the kingdom Monera within the five-kingdom system.
