Correct answer

A. Fungi

Step-by-step solution

Prokaryotes are organisms that lack a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. They are classified under the kingdom Monera.

Bacteria, blue-green algae (cyanobacteria), and mycoplasma are all examples of prokaryotes.

Fungi are eukaryotic organisms, meaning they possess a well-defined nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Therefore, fungi are not prokaryotes.
