Which of the following kingdoms includes autotrophic organisms that are capable of asexual or sexual reproduction and have cell walls made of cellulose?

  1. Animalia

  2. Bacteria

  3. Fungi

  4. Plantae

The correct answer is: Animalia

This answer is incorrect because the kingdom Animalia does not include autotrophic organisms. Autotrophic refers to organisms that can produce their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis, and this process is not performed by animals. Additionally, animals do not have cell walls, they have cell membranes. Option B (Bacteria) is incorrect because bacteria do not have cellulose cell walls, they have cell walls made of peptidoglycan. Option C (Fungi) is also incorrect because while fungi have cell walls made of chitin, they are not capable of photosynthesis. The correct answer is D (Plantae) because plants are autotrophic, have cell walls made of cellulose, and can reproduce through both asexual and sexual means.
