12. Prokaryotes, Animals and Plants are three of the five kingdoms of organisms. State the
names of the two other kingdoms.

It became very difficult to group some living things into one or the other, so early in the past
century the two kingdoms were expanded into five kingdoms: Protista (the single-celled
eukaryotes); Fungi (fungus and related organisms); Plantae (the plants); Animalia (the animals);
Monera (the prokaryotes).
