Answer 1

Answer:

Kingdom Animalia

Explanation:

Living organisms have been classified into a large group called DOMAIN. Based on the domain classification, living organisms are either prokaryotic (without a membrane-bound nucleus) or eukaryotic (possess membrane-bound nucleus). The domains were further classified into six (6) Kingdoms viz: Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.

Each living organisms that make up a Kingdom has its own characteristics. Based on the characteristics outlined in the attached image, it depicts that of a living organism in Kingdom Animalia because all animals are belong to the domain Eukarya i.e. are eukaryotic, multicellular and heterotrophic.

Organisms in Kingdom Animalia depend on other organisms for their food source i.e. heterotrophic. They possess more than one cell i.e. multicellular.
