›In 1938, American biologist Herbert Copeland proposed a four-kingdom system. In addition to plants and animals, he elevated the prokaryotes to kingdom status and he argued that the distinctions between prokaryotes and eukaryotes were so fundamental that prokaryotes merited a fourth kingdom of their own called Kingdom Monera. The names applied to the two kingdoms- Monera and Protista - have varied over the past half century.
