Bacteria are neither plants nor animals and today are placed in a separatekingdom called the Monera. Somebacteria (including the very importantcyanobacteria or blue-green algae) are capable of photosynthesis, thereby acting like plants. ... Bacteria are very simple cells, filaments, and colonies.
Blue-green algae, also called cyanobacteria, any of a large, heterogeneous group of prokaryotic, principally photosynthetic organisms. ... Algae have since been reclassified as protists, and the prokaryotic nature of the blue-green algae has caused them to be classified with bacteria in the prokaryotic kingdom Monera.

Answer: It is explained as follows:
Explanation:
Monera are prokaryotic, single-celled bacteria that lack a distinct nucleus. Since the nuclear membrane does not surround the DNA, therefore it is naked. In the cell, their genetic material is loosely distributed.
In contrast, the nucleus of a plant's cell contains its genetic material. As a result, blue-green algae are classified as belonging to the Kingdom Monera and not the Kingdom Plantae.
