Question
In the 18th century, Carl Linnaeus published a system for classifying living things,
which has been developed into the modern classification system. Recently the
classification system of life was changed to include not five but six kingdoms, as
well as three domains. Earlier classification attempts were based mostly on
structural features. Classification of many species, old and new, continues to be
hotly disputed as scientists find new information or interpret facts in new ways.
Now, DNA technology has allowed scientists to re-examine the relationships
between organisms to refine the classification system. The Kingdom Monera in
the old classification system included all bacteria. What two kingdoms now
encompass prokaryotic organisms?
Bacteria and archaea
Eubacteria and archaea
Bacteria and archaebacteria
Eubacteria and archaebacteria
