Question

Pick the ODD one out: a. Monotremata b. Fungi c. Plantae d. Protista
Options
A Monotremata
Correct Answer
B Fungi
C Plantae
D Protista
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Monotremata is an order of mammals (egg-laying mammals like the platypus). Fungi, Plantae, and Protista are all kingdoms (or in the case of Protista, a kingdom-level group) in biological classification. So, Monotremata is the odd one out as it is a lower taxonomic rank.

Hint

Three are broad kingdoms, one is a specific group within the animal kingdom.
