The correct option for Monera is D) single-celled organisms such as some forms of algae.
To arrive at this answer, you can use the process of elimination and knowledge about Monera.
Option A states that Monera is a one-celled algae with a stiff cell wall. Although some algae are single-celled, Monera is a separate kingdom of life and does not refer specifically to algae with stiff cell walls. Therefore, option A is incorrect.
Option B suggests that Monera refers to simple organisms like mushrooms and molds. However, mushrooms and molds belong to the kingdom Fungi, not Monera. Hence, option B is incorrect.
Option C states that Monera is an infectious disease carried by mosquitoes and harmful to humans. Monera does not refer to a disease; it is a separate kingdom of life. So, option C is incorrect.
Option D states that Monera refers to single-celled organisms such as some forms of algae. This is the correct option. Monera is a kingdom that includes various single-celled organisms like bacteria and cyanobacteria (also known as blue-green algae).
Option E refers to chlorophyll, the green chemical that allows plants to create their own food. Chlorophyll is not directly associated with Monera, so option E is incorrect.
In conclusion, the correct answer is D) single-celled organisms such as some forms of algae.
