Question on: JAMB Biology - 2023
Which of the following is a characteristic feature of Kingdom Plantae?
Presence of chloroplasts
Ability to perform photosynthesis
Lack of cell walls
Heterotrophic mode of nutrition
The presence of chloroplasts is a characteristic feature of Kingdom Plantae. Chloroplasts are the cellular organelles responsible for photosynthesis, a process by which plants produce their food using sunlight.
The ability to perform photosynthesis is also correct, as the ability to perform photosynthesis is closely tied to the presence of chloroplasts. The other options are incorrect, as plants do have cell walls, and they typically exhibit an autotrophic (self-feeding) mode of nutrition rather than heterotrophic (dependent on external food sources).
