State the merits of whittakers method of classification
This system is accepted everywhere due to the phylogenetic placing of different groups of living organisms scientifically.The prokaryotes are placed in an individual kingdom.Kingdom protista contained all unicellular eukaryotes.Fungi are placed in a separate kingdom due to its characteristics.

Merits of R. H. Whittaker 5 Kingdom Classification
· It is largely the most accepted system of modern classification
· Separation of prokaryotes into an independent kingdom is justifiable
· Grouping of all unicellular eukaryotes under the kingdom Protista has solved many problems, particularly related to the position of organisms like Euglena.
· Elevation of the group fungi to the status of a kingdom is justifiable since fungi totally differ from other primitive eukaryotes like algae and protozoans.
· The kingdoms plantae and animalia are now more homogeneous groups than they were in the two kingdom classification as it shows the phylogeny of different life styles.
· The five-kingdom classification gives a clear indication of cellular organization and modes of nutrition, the characters which appeared very early in the evolution of life.
