    Most kingdoms are Eukaryotic

    Explanation:

    Prokaryotes are organisms consisting of cells that do not have membrane-bound organelles or a cell nucleus.

    Eukaryotes are organisms made up of cells that have a membrane-bound nucleus to hold their genetic material, in addition to membrane-bound organelles.

    The five kingdoms are Animalia, Plantae, Protista, Fungi, and Monera.

    Animalia are eukaryotic because the organisms in this category are advanced organisms that require membrane-bound organelles and a nucleus with their genetic DNA in order to function and thrive. Protista, fungi, and plantae also go into the eukaryotic category because protists, fungi, and plants all have membrane-bound organelles and can carry out higher-level functions.

    Monera are prokaryotes, and monera are usually classified into two domains: bacteria and archaea. Monerans lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, and for this reason Monerans are very small organisms.
