- There are three main ways that bacteria and archaea are essential to eukaryotic life. Explain the three different ways and give at least one example of each.arrow_forwardbacteria and archaea are both prokaryotes. But Carl Woese proposed that archaea are closer to eukaryotes. What’s the evidence for his theory?arrow_forwardIn the domain system of classification, prokaryotes are divided into two domains: Bacteria and Archaea. The two domains differ in all BUT one feature. Which feature do they have in common? Question options: They both have identical cell walls. They both have prokaryotic cells. They both thrive in extreme environments. They both are able to live only under anaerobic conditions.arrow_forward
- Your friend Jim Crackcorn has developed a new antibiotic that damages the integrity of the cell wall by breaking down peptidoglycan. Jim tells you that he predicts that gram positive bacteria, gram negative bacteria and archaeal cells will be equally sensitive to this antibiotic. Do you agree with Jim’s prediction? If you agree, explain in your own words why you agree. If you disagree, explain in your own words what you would predict and why.arrow_forwardBoth bacteria and archaea used to be known as prokaryotes. True or false?arrow_forwardArchaea are so named because option1-their cell structure is thought to be more primitive than the cell structure of bacteria option2-they arose from the joining of members from the Archaea and Bacteria Domains. option3-many survive in extreme conditions thought to be similar to ancient earth option4-they are thought to be the first group of prokaryotes to evolve on eartharrow_forward
- Archaea are different from Eubacteria are different types of prokaryotes because... Archaea lack a nucleus Archaea are unicellular Archaea lack peptidoglycan in their cell wall Archaea do not have ribosomesarrow_forwardBacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya are three _____.arrow_forwardYour friend believes that prokaryotes are always detrimental and pathogenic. How would you explain to them that they are wrong?arrow_forward
- How do bacteria and archaea differ from each other? Contrast prokaryotic cells with eukaryotic cells.arrow_forwardDescribe the relationship between the original bacteria kingdom called monera and the domain called bacteria.arrow_forwardWhich of the following contribute(s) to the differences between the Archaea and the bacteria? O A. Archaea lack muramic acid. O B. Archaea have isopranyl glycerol ethers rather than fatty acid esters in their membrane lipids. O C. Archaea differ from bacteria in their tRNA composition, ribosome structure, antibiotic sensitivity, translation elongation factors, initiator TRNA, and DNA-dependent RNA polymerase structure.
