Biologists have long been aware that the defunct kingdom Protista is paraphyletic. Which of these statements is both true and consistent with this conclusion?

Many species within this kingdom were once classified as monerans.

Animals, plants, and fungi arose from different protist ancestors.

The eukaryotic condition has evolved only once among the protists, and all eukaryotes are descendants of that first eukaryotic cell.

Chloroplasts among various protists are similar to those found in prokaryotes.

Some protists, all animals, and all fungi share a protist common ancestor, but these protists, animals, and fungi are currently assigned to three different kingdoms.
