What is kindom monera

Answer» - The organism has well defined nucleus or organelles , cell wall is present in some organism of this group , nutrition - autotrophic or heterotrophic
Kingdom Monera is considered as the most primitive group of organisms and monerans are most abundant of all. It generally comprises unicellular organisms with a prokaryotic cell organization. They lack well-defined cell structures including the nucleus and other cell organelles. They consist of prokaryotes which include species like the Cyanobacteria, archaebacteria, mycoplasma, and bacteria are a few members of this kingdom.The general characteristic features of Monerans are:\tMonerans are present in both living and non-living environment.\tSome have rigid cell walls, while some do not.\tMembrane bound nucleus is absent in monerans.\tHabitat – Monerans are found everywhere in hot or thermal springs, in the deep ocean floor, under ice, in deserts and on or inside the body of plants and animals.\tThey are autotrophic, i.e., they can synthesize food on their own while some other have a heterotrophic, saprophytic, parasitic, symbiotic, commensalistic and mutualistic modes of nutrition.\tLocomotion is with the help of flagella.\tCirculation is through diffusion.\tRespiration in these organisms vary, few are obligate aerobes, while some are obligate anaerobes and facultative anaerobes\tReproduction is mostly asexual and few also reproduce by sexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction is by conjugation, transformation, and transduction. Asexual reproduction is by binary fission.
In kingdom monera organisms which are prokaryotes and are unicellular falls in this kingdom
