Answer: A Animalia

According to the provided diagram, the kingdom in which the organism fits best is Animalia. The reason for this is that this kingdom is the only one in which organisms have specialized sense organs.

Plantae and fungi are also multicellular, but they lack specialized sense organs. Archaea, Bacteria and Protista are all completely or partially unicellular. They also lack specialized sense organs.
