Why are monerans placed in a unique kingdom?

The kingdoms Eubacteria and Archaebacteria (aka domains Bacteria and Archaea) contain prokaryotic organisms, or organisms without a true nucleus. The kingdom Monera was used to include all the organisms of both kingdoms but was split once taxonomists realized that archaebacteria are more closely related to eukaryotes than eubacteria.


Why would scientists need to add new domains or kingdoms to the classification system?

Modern taxonomists have added new kingdoms because recent molecular studies using DNA and protein analysis has enabled biologists to better understand evolutionary relationships. Therefore, they now recognize that bacteria must be placed into two separate kingdoms- Archaebacteria and Eubacteria
