Answer 2

Kingdom Monera plays a crucial role in various ecosystems as decomposers, breaking down organic matter and recycling nutrients. They are also important for nitrogen fixation, converting atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form for other organisms. In the field of biotechnology, some bacteria from Kingdom Monera are used in processes like fermentation, genetic engineering, and the production of antibiotics.
