Answer:

B. Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia are more closely related to each other than to Bacteria and Archaea.

Explanation:

    Bacteria and Archaea are unicellular sub-kingdoms that are part of the Monera Kingdom, which gathers prokaryotic, unicellular, free-living or parasitic, autotrophs (photosynthesizers or chemosynthesizers) or heterotrophic, absorption-feeding organisms.

    Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia are kingdoms of multicellular and colonial beings.
