Answer:

If it has a nucleus it must be a member of the domain Eukaryota.

Explanation:

The broadest domains in biology are Eukarya, Bacteria, and Archea, in the Eukarya domain we can gather all living beings that have a nucleus, this includes the kingdoms of animals, plants, fungi and protists, and includes some evolved bacterias that are included in this domain, this can also include uni-cellled organisms, thats why the correct answer would be C, since the other options all have DNA as its genetic material, and cells that have cell wall are included in prokariotic and eukaryotic cells, and membrane bound organelles can also be part of archea.
