In trying to classify a newly discovered organism, the following characteristics were noted: multicellular, specialized tissues and organs, chlorophyll-containing structures and cell walls. Which kingdom should this organism be placed and why?

• Eubacteria, because it is multicellular and has specialized tissues

• Protista, because it has chlorophyll and is multicellular

The mystery species can perform photosynthesis. The mystery species is multicellular. The mystery species has a cell wall.

• You can eliminate the animal kingdom because animals are multicellular but do not perform photosynthesis.

• You can eliminate the animal kingdom because animals have cell walls but cannot perform photosynthesis

• You can eliminate the protist kingdom because protists are multicellular but cannot perform photosynthesis

• You can eliminate the protist kingdoms because protist can perform photosynthesis but do not have cell walls
