The correct response is: **He only had two kingdoms, animals and plants.**

Linnaeus's original classification system categorized life into just two kingdoms—Animalia (animals) and Plantae (plants)—whereas modern classification systems recognize a wider range of kingdoms and domains, including fungi, protists, and various other categories based on genetic relationships and evolutionary history.
